6. Assessment Accuracy and Limitations
Accuracy Notice
While we use structured regulatory knowledge graphs, multi-axis risk scoring models calibrated on real enforcement data, and AI-powered document analysis to provide comprehensive assessments, our findings are informational and do not constitute professional legal, regulatory, or compliance advice. Always consult qualified professionals before making critical compliance decisions based on our Reports.
Our Assessments and Reports are subject to the following limitations:
- — Assessments are based on automated document analysis and regulatory graph matching — they may not detect compliance coverage expressed in non-standard or ambiguous language
- — We cannot guarantee identification of all compliance gaps, especially those requiring human contextual judgment or organization-specific knowledge
- — Regulatory obligations may change after our knowledge graph was last updated; results reflect the regulatory state at the time of assessment
- — Risk scores are probabilistic and calibrated on available enforcement data — they should be interpreted as guidance, not certainty
- — AI document analysis may occasionally misinterpret document content or miss implicit compliance coverage
- — Our platform does not replace a formal compliance audit by a qualified assessor or legal professional
7. Intellectual Property
The Platform and its original content, features, and functionality are owned by QuestFeed Pty Ltd and protected by international intellectual property laws. This includes:
- — The AuditDSS name, logo, and branding
- — Platform design, layout, and user interface
