Patent-Pending Architecture

A plain-English explanation of the architecture Rilev has filed around privacy-preserving assessment access, data separation, recovery, and key rotation.

What patent pending means

Rilev has filed a patent application for core parts of its anonymous lifecycle architecture. Patent pending means an application has been filed. It does not mean a patent has issued.

Split identity and data planes

Rilev separates account access from assessment content so a normal readable identity-to-answer join is not part of the product model.

Encrypted data locator

The system is designed around capability-style access and one-way proofs instead of trusting a browser-supplied account identifier alone.

Zero-knowledge recovery path

Recovery flows are scoped to restore access without turning Rilev into a holder of the person behind the assessment.

Unlinkable key rotation

Key rotation is designed so access can change over time while minimizing the creation of permanent cross-context links.

Why this matters for users

The goal is not only to protect stored records. It is to shape the product so private assessment answers do not become ordinary account-profile data in the first place.

That architecture supports Rilev's broader privacy model: anonymous assessment access, separated records, bounded recovery, and controlled handoff to product experiences that need payment or fulfillment.
