Enforcement Seal Embed

Show live runtime enforcement on your site — the ComplyEdge hex seal updates automatically from your audit trail.

1. What it is

The ComplyEdge Enforcement Seal is an embeddable SVG served from our API. It reflects your tenant's live PublicTrustSnapshot — checks in the last 24 hours, enforcement activity in the last 7 days, and opt-in status.

Buyers and auditors can click through to your public trust JSON for machine-readable proof. No static marketing badge — the seal is wired to runtime audit data.

Architecture contract: docs/architecture/trust-surface-contract.md · API details: GET /v1/public/badge/{slug}.svg

2. Enable public trust

Public visibility is opt-in. Default is private — no badge until you enable it.

Call PATCH /v1/tenant/trust with your API key.
Set trust_public_enabled: true and a URL-safe public_slug (or omit slug to auto-suggest from your tenant name).
Confirm embed URLs via GET /v1/tenant/trust.

curl -s -X PATCH https://api.complyedge.io/v1/tenant/trust \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ce_live_your_api_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"trust_public_enabled": true, "public_slug": "acme"}'

Response includes badge_svg_url and trust_json_url — use those exact URLs in production.

3. Copy-paste embed

Replace YOUR_SLUG with the slug from step 2. Paste into your site footer, security page, or DD data room.

<a href="https://api.complyedge.io/v1/public/trust/YOUR_SLUG"
   rel="noopener noreferrer">
  <img src="https://api.complyedge.io/v1/public/badge/YOUR_SLUG.svg"
       alt="ComplyEdge — runtime enforcement status"
       height="26" />
</a>

• The <a> link opens public trust JSON — useful for technical due diligence.
• The <img> loads the live seal; no API key in the browser.
• Set height="26" to match the seal aspect ratio; width scales automatically.
• Cached for 5 minutes (max-age=300) — status updates without redeploying your site.

4. Seal states

The right panel and status dot reflect live enforcement — not a one-time certification.

Green — checks in the last 24h. Label: Runtime Enforced · N checks
Amber — enforcement in the last 7 days, quiet last 24h. Label: Runtime Enforced
Red — opted in but no audit activity in 7 days. Label: Awaiting activity

Left panel always shows the ComplyEdge hex mark — your recognizable CE identity at any embed size.

5. Troubleshooting

Seal returns 404

Slug unknown, typo, or trust_public_enabled is false. Re-check GET /v1/tenant/trust.

Seal shows red / Awaiting activity

No audit events in 7 days. Run production /v1/check traffic — the seal reflects live enforcement, not install date.

support@complyedge.io — include your slug and tenant name. Embed setup should not require a support ticket if steps 2–3 are followed.
