name: governance description: Use to enforce approvals, compliance, and auditability for personalization programs.

Personalization Governance Skill

When to Use

• Deploying or updating personalization rules, models, or high-impact content variants.
• Running quarterly audits on consent, data usage, or fairness metrics.
• Investigating incidents related to personalization errors or policy breaches.

Framework

1. Policy Alignment – document legal, privacy, accessibility, and ethical constraints per channel.
2. Approval Workflow – define RACI (architect, legal, security, marketing) and required evidence per change.
3. Change Logging – capture version metadata (who, what, when, why), including rollback steps.
4. Risk Monitoring – set KPIs + alerts for fairness, bias, consent violations, or performance regressions.
5. Audit Trail – maintain dashboards + storage for decision logs, approvals, and incident reports.

Templates

• Change request form (summary, impact, risk score, approvers, attachments).
• Governance checklist (consent, accessibility, localization, security, QA evidence).
• Incident review template (root cause, remediation, follow-up actions, owner).

Tips

• Pair governance checkpoints with CI/CD or deployment scripts to prevent bypass.
• Use unique change IDs to connect decision tree updates with content variants and experiments.
• Schedule quarterly tabletop exercises to keep stakeholders fluent in escalation paths.
