# REFRACT standard consent policy for requests, version 2026.1.
#
# Starter text awaiting counsel's review (docs/decisions/esign-counsel-review.md, Q14). It is
# deliberately conservative and is not a draft: it ships and is shown as written. It is the
# system policy for workflow: the external participants of a request see it before the form
# loads, the person asked to complete and submit it and an approver asked to review it. It
# follows refract-standard-consent 2026.2 section by section, worded for completing and
# submitting a request instead of signing, and uses the same tokens, filled in when the policy
# is shown (consent spec 3.5). Counsel's edits ship as a new version (a new file version and a
# new registry entry); this version is never edited, because requests created with it keep its
# text.
#
# This comment is part of the file's bytes and so is covered by its registered hash
# (systemConsentRegistry.ts). Changing anything in this file, including this comment, needs a
# new version.
