GLARS Documentation Site

This repository contains the GLARS (Geo-Legal Access Risk Score) documentation website.

About GLARS

GLARS is an objective, apolitical framework for quantifying jurisdictional risks in data sovereignty assessments. It relies solely on documented legal frameworks, published government powers, and verifiable technical requirements across jurisdictions.

This project is a Splinters.io 001.5 project via John Carroll

Key Principles

• Evidence-Based: Uses only publicly available legal frameworks and official documentation
• Objective Scoring: Applies consistent criteria across all jurisdictions regardless of political systems
• Transparent Methodology: Fully documented approach with traceable score derivation
• Practical Utility: Focuses on actual legal powers that affect data governance decisions
