# Overview

> Learn more about our built-in compliance layer

Kadoa provides built-in compliance features such as approval flow, compliance rules, and auditing. Our compliance layer ensures that organizational guidelines and rules around data extraction are automatically enforced.

## Compliance Process

Depending on your internal compliance proesses, we recommend the following controls:

* **Compliance training**: Ensure all authorized Kadoa users complete compliance training and understand your organization’s data sourcing policies.

* **Automated compliance checks**: Leverage Kadoa's built-in compliance layer to automatically enforce restrictions.

* **Regular reporting and auditing**: Assign the compliance officer user role to enable regular auditing across teams.

## Automated Compliance Rules

Your compliance team can configure automated checks tailored to your specific organizational requirements. Kadoa supports the following customizable compliance rules:

| Rule Type                              | Description                                                                                                                                                    |
| -------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Source Blacklisting**                | Explicitly prevent extracting or accessing prohibited sources or domains.                                                                                      |
| **Captcha & Explicit TOS Enforcement** | Prevent automated circumvention of explicit Terms of Service pop-ups and automated Captcha bypassing.                                                          |
| **Sensitive Data (PII) Detection**     | Automatically detects attempts to extract common forms of Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and can be configured to redact, flag, or block such data. |
| **robots.txt Check**                   | Automatically checks `robots.txt` directives for all web interactions, promoting ethical data sourcing from websites.                                          |
| **Custom Restrictions**                | Configure fine-grained custom restrictions.                                                                                                                    |

Violations immediately trigger clear and descriptive warnings or errors, preventing accidental non-compliance.

We also allow you to add custom compliance hints/reminders on the screen where users configure a new workflow.
