Monitor Inventor Mobility Signals

Purpose

Help authorized global IP and R&D teams identify public patent-record changes that may justify human review. Preserve the source's organization mode, named-inventor mode, inactivity window, later-patent search, technical comparison and HTML report, while correcting the central inference: patent records do not establish employment or resignation.

Required safeguards

• Confirm a legitimate purpose and applicable privacy, employment, works-council, discrimination and monitoring requirements.
• Minimize personal data, restrict access and define retention/deletion.
• Use public professional evidence only when necessary and lawful.
• Do not make or recommend automated adverse decisions about a person.
• Do not present review priority as misconduct, leakage, ownership, FTO or legal risk.
• Require qualified IP/legal and, where relevant, HR/employment review for material decisions.

If these safeguards cannot be met, stop person-level monitoring and provide only aggregated portfolio analysis.
