Employee Center Change Management and Release Approval Record Policy

No Raw Database Data Claim

For clarity, this document does not claim that Quintin N. Mahan owns raw facts, raw database rows, independent outside source records, CRS-owned operational records, customer-owned records, third-party-owned records, or customer relationships merely because such information is entered into, stored in, processed by, displayed through, backed up with, or exported from EC.

This document protects EC Protected Materials: the application, software, source code, schemas, database design, data model, relationships, indexes, workflows, dashboards, reports, queries, automations, integrations, APIs, access controls, credentials, hardware, infrastructure, legal records, certificate records, hashes, metadata systems, audit systems, methods, processes, techniques, trade secrets, documentation, and EC-created structural organization.

1. Purpose

This policy explains how EC may document changes, releases, deployments, migrations, rollbacks, fixes, and owner/admin release decisions.

This policy does not give CRS control over EC changes.

2. Change Records

EC may maintain change records including version, date, summary, affected modules, migration notes, rollback notes, reason, risk, tester, owner/admin approval, commit reference, artifact hash, and deployment notes.

3. Owner/Admin Approval

Release approval means approval by Quintin N. Mahan or a delegated owner/admin process.

It does not mean CRS approval, customer approval, user approval, buyer approval, or company approval unless Quintin N. Mahan signs a separate written agreement.

4. No Release Obligation

A planned change, issue, task, branch, roadmap item, or release note does not create an obligation to release, maintain, support, or prioritize that change.

5. Emergency Changes

Emergency changes may be made without advance notice or normal documentation where needed for security, preservation, continuity, or incident response.

6. Evidence

Change records may be preserved as ownership, audit, security, legal, and operational evidence.

Changes to This Policy

Quintin N. Mahan may update this policy by publishing a new active version in EC.

The current active version will be displayed through the Legal hub or Policies hub.

Older versions may remain stored in Postgres for audit, evidence, legal history, and historical review.
