Conservative resolution
Normalization is deterministic and limited to spacing, case, punctuation, and reviewed legal suffix handling. Similarity creates private proposals only and never creates an identity.
Source roles remain
A notifying entity, public-sector agency, covered entity, business associate, and respondent are distinct roles even when they resolve to one organization profile.
Reviewed decisions
Approved or rejected alias decisions retain a stable ID, source set, evidence, date, and review note. Chains and cycles are rejected.
What is not inferred
Parent and subsidiary relationships, brands, renamed companies, and near-matching names remain separate without reviewed evidence.
