Ownership & Control

Your expertise.
Your identity.
Clear boundaries.

PROXXY is designed to help organizations preserve valuable institutional intelligence while respecting the people whose experience helped create it.

The company keeps its institutional intelligence.
The person keeps their identity.

Ownership, access, and retention are governed by applicable agreements and law.

PROXXY is an early-stage company. This page describes the proposed product and governance architecture, subject to applicable law, contractual agreements, and enterprise deployment terms. Where a capability is not yet implemented, we say so.

The three parties

Three parties. Distinct responsibilities.

The Platform
PROXXY
The Organization · The Customer
Purchases and governs the enterprise deployment
  • Controls authorized company workflows.
  • Defines enterprise data access.
  • Establishes policies and risk boundaries.
  • Approves delegated authority.
  • Governs company work records and validated institutional precedent.
The Employee · The User
Receives a personalized work assistant
  • Uses PROXXY to reduce repetitive work.
  • Reviews and corrects interpretations.
  • Understands what information is collected.
  • Has clearly defined personal privacy and workspace controls.
  • Can inspect what PROXXY has learned within the permissions of the deployment.

The company purchases the platform.
The employee benefits from the assistant.
PROXXY provides the infrastructure.

PROXXY operates the software infrastructure, supports decision capture and evaluation, enforces configured access and authority rules, and maintains system records and audit capabilities as implemented. PROXXY retains its underlying platform technology, subject to customer agreements.

Two distinct layers

Personal experience. Institutional memory.

Employee-facing controls
Personal Layer

A personalized workspace designed around the employee.

Examples
  • Individual preferences.
  • Personal settings.
  • Private notes where supported.
  • Assistant interaction preferences.
  • Employee-specific corrections and feedback.

Privacy, access, export, and deletion rights depend on the relevant data classification, company policy, applicable law, and contractual terms. Not all work-related information in an employee's workspace is personally owned.

Governed reuse
Company-governed intelligence
Institutional Layer

Company-governed organizational intelligence.

Examples
  • Authorized business decisions.
  • Company policies and workflows.
  • Documented business rationale.
  • Validated precedent.
  • Operational outcomes.
  • Approved organizational playbooks.

The organization retains access to authorized institutional records according to its rights and retention obligations.

Not every employee interaction becomes organizational precedent. A work decision may be recorded without becoming validated guidance.

Who controls what

Ownership is not authority.

Who purchases PROXXY?The organization
Who uses my PROXXY?The employee
Who owns the underlying software?PROXXY
Who governs company work records?The organization, subject to applicable rights
Who defines automated authority?The organization
Who reviews employee-specific interpretations?Authorized users within defined permissions
Who controls personal information?According to privacy rights, contracts, and configured controls
Can institutional knowledge survive employee departure?Yes, where the company has retention and reuse rights
Can PROXXY impersonate a departed employee?Not under the proposed standard model

A proposed framework, subject to applicable law, contractual agreements, and enterprise deployment terms.

When an employee leaves

Knowledge can remain. Identity doesn't have to.

Employee departs
Path 01
Personal Experience
  • Employee account access ends.
  • Personal delegation settings are disabled.
  • Employee-specific impersonation or identity representations are not continued under the standard model.
  • Eligible personal settings or information may be exported or removed according to defined rights.
  • Retention and deletion follow the applicable agreement and legal requirements.
Path 02
Institutional Memory
  • Authorized company decision records remain where permitted.
  • Validated organizational precedent remains accessible to authorized roles.
  • Company policies and workflows remain.
  • Audit records follow established retention requirements.
  • Employee-specific decision patterns receive separate treatment according to documented rights and technical feasibility.

The organization shouldn't lose its history when someone leaves. The individual shouldn't become a permanent digital replica.

Complete anonymization or deletion of derived knowledge is not promised. Treatment of employee-specific patterns depends on documented rights and verified technical capabilities.

Responsibility

Every action has an authority. Every decision has a record.

01 · Contributing judgment

An employee's decisions help PROXXY develop and test its understanding.

02 · Granting authority

The organization determines which categories PROXXY may handle, within specific limits.

03 · Executing an action

PROXXY acts only under an explicitly approved organizational rule.

Audit recordIllustrative example, not a deployed PROXXY record
ActionService-credit recommendation approved
ActorPROXXY under organizationally delegated authority
Authority ownerService Operations
PolicyCustomer Resolution Policy · Example
Value limit$100
Human approvalNot required within this illustrative authorization
EscalationNot triggered

PROXXY should never attribute an autonomous action to a person who did not actually approve it.

Legal responsibility is not fixed in advance. It depends on contracts, applicable law, and the circumstances of each action. Neither the company always bearing liability, nor an employee never bearing it, is claimed here.

Five types of information

Not all data is the same.

A separate caseDerived decision patterns, the statistical understanding PROXXY builds from many decisions, are a distinct technical and contractual issue requiring explicit treatment. They are not silently folded into any category above.

Each entry above distinguishes a proposed design control from a legally established right and an implemented capability. Where treatment is uncertain, the framework says so rather than implying completion.

Trust by design

Transparency is part of the product.

01Visibility

Users should understand what relevant information is collected and how it is used.

02Permissions

Access to company information should follow approved organizational roles and policies.

03No impersonation

PROXXY should not misrepresent autonomous actions as human decisions.

04No employee ranking

Shadow Mode is intended to measure PROXXY's predictive performance, not score employees. The proposed pilot prohibits employee ranking and performance evaluation using Shadow scores.

05Clear exit rules

Collection, access withdrawal, record deletion, and derived-knowledge removal are distinct processes with different legal and technical limitations.

These are PROXXY's proposed governance requirements, presented as design commitments rather than a claim of current implementation.

The bigger principle

Intelligence should compound. Trust should not be compromised.

PROXXY is being designed around a simple balance: organizations should preserve the knowledge developed through their work, while employees should understand and benefit from how their professional experience contributes to that intelligence.

The company gets smarter.
Its people get their time back.
