Compliance Program

Operational standards and regulatory guidance for BRSG-owned content sites and client consulting engagements.

Status: Phase 1 active Updated: 2026-06-25 Owner: Bill Rice (BRC LLC)

Two tracks

BRSG operates two types of work with distinct compliance profiles. Content sites carry FTC affiliate and AI disclosure obligations. Client consulting work carries engagement, confidentiality, and professional-conduct obligations.

Track 1 · Owned Content

Content Sites

Affiliate disclosure, AI content transparency, privacy/CCPA, and lead-gen consent for BRSG-owned properties. Primary risk: FTC 16 CFR 255 affiliate disclosure and FTC AI guidance.

7owned sites

Applies uniformly to every BRSG-owned content property. The current roster lives in the owned-properties reference and the periodic property audit — not enumerated here, so the standard never churns as the roster changes.
Track 2 · Client Consulting

Client Engagements

SOW standards, confidentiality obligations, deliverable ownership, conflict of interest, and professional liability awareness for active consulting clients.

5+active clients

Applies to every active consulting engagement. Specific clients are tracked in the engagement register, not listed here.

Standards library

Operational standards that govern how BRSG publishes content and manages client relationships. Each standard is a deployable document — read it, apply it, reference it by URL in vendor agreements or counsel memos.

Audits

Point-in-time reviews of the owned-property fleet against the standards. Findings feed the open-action register below.

Open actions

Post-audit remediation register (2026-06-25). All audit remediations are complete and live-verified across the fleet — no open items.
