Restricted content is potentially sensitive content about an individual.Restricted content can be marked as Restricted or Restricted+ depending onthe sensitivity of the content. Restricted and Restricted+ content mayoccasionally be stored in Google Issue Tracker. To mitigate therisk of this information being visible, content in Google Issue Tracker thatcontains or is suspected to contain sentitive content will be marked with arestricted flag. This restricted flag will restrict access so that the contentcan only be viewed by those with a business need (and never by the generalpublic). Attempts to access content marked as restricted (both successful andunsuccessful) will be logged and auditable.
