 "methodology": "Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through our fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2). 3 of the 24 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 21 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 0 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in day (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 13 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): one row per rule per regime (UK GDPR as it has effect, DPA 2018 with the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025 amendments, the law-enforcement regime in Part 3, the health-records route, and the EU regime for an EEA controller): the obligation, the number in it (one month, two further months, zero fee), the section it comes from and the date it took effect - and, across them, the two things nobody publishes as a table: which of the twenty-odd exemptions actually reach Article 15 and which do not, and what CHANGED at each amendment, so a requester whose refusal cites an old rule can see it",
