The P&P establishes a set of principles and policies that serve these principles, in order to achieve the CoI's long-term goals (i.e, the purpose as stated in its [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:c:charter|charter]]). The P&P defines specific methods/procedures employed to express these policies in action: detailed rules and guidelines to control the activities and [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:d:data_retention_policy]] of the organization. In the US, some policies are concerned with human resources (HR) issues (e.g., [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:h:hippa]], or [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:d:data_protection|data protection]]((

The intent of the P&P is to influence and help formulate all the major decisions and actions of the organization. All activities within the organization are to take place within the boundaries set by the P&P. ((
