Abstract
This disclosure relates to enforcing restrictions on data collected from a first set of systems and disseminated to a second set of systems. For example, a method for enforcing a set of restrictions includes receiving a first trait and a second trait that include data describing a user that has interacted with an online service. The first trait is labelled with a first usage restriction and the second trait is labelled with a second usage restriction different from the first usage restriction. The method further includes combining the first trait and the second trait into a segment. The segment preserves labelling of the first trait with the first usage restriction and the second trait with the second usage restriction. The method further includes controlling use of the segment based on the first usage restriction and the second usage restriction.
