Article 5 · Safety scan

Stop prohibited patterns before launch

Flag possible Article 5 conflicts early, so product and legal can intervene before release.

Safety-review flow showing safeguards, stop decisions, escalation, and evidence records

How the safety scan complements your audit

Use it with Quick Audit to separate documentation gaps from potentially prohibited use cases.

Pattern radar

Combines static analysis hints with policy keywords to flag modules that deserve human review — not a court verdict.

Article 5 lens

Mapped to the latest consolidated text — social scoring, manipulation, biometric surveillance, and emotion inference in sensitive contexts.

Evidence hooks

Each hit surfaces file paths, log excerpts, and recommended mitigations so engineering can patch or scope down features.

Governance bridge

Export bundles align with your integrity report and Annex IV narrative — one story for regulators and boards.

Legal handoff

Escalation prompts include jurisdiction notes and when to involve outside counsel or DPA consultation.

Continuous use

Re-run on every release candidate; prohibited signals can appear when models or integrations change.

Article 5 prohibited practices

Illustrative findings — always validate with your counsel.

Social scoring
Critical risk

Parameters that evaluate trustworthiness from social behavior or personality proxies — often incompatible with fundamental rights safeguards.

Emotion recognition in workplaces
High risk

Systems inferring emotional states to monitor employees — Article 5(1)(f) triggers fast for productivity surveillance patterns.

Remote biometric ID
Prohibited case

Live biometric identification in publicly accessible spaces for law enforcement — narrow exceptions, heavy documentation.

Subliminal manipulation
Prohibited

Techniques beyond human perception meant to distort behavior — requires immediate product and legal escalation.

Suggested mitigation

Suspend facial metadata in production; route oversight workflows through human review before re-enabling any affective inference.
