  3. (e-Framework, Service Genre – Comply)   Describes compliance by a party, the process where a party is presented with a policy statement and given the opportunity to acknowledge acceptance of the policy. The policy contains information around the terms and conditions of use that the party is signing on to. The compliance process normally involves an individual agreeing to abide by certain rules when using a system. This is normally tracked so that any breaches of use by an individual can be enforced e.g., remove access, legal proceedings.
