# Behavioral Profiling Behavioral profiling constructs a model of a person, account, device, or group from actions, timing, relationships, preferences, location, language, and response patterns. ## Uses Legitimate uses include fraud prevention, personalization, accessibility, security analytics, and research. The same capability can support discriminatory scoring, coercive targeting, surveillance, or adaptive influence. ## Evidentiary boundary Personalized output does not reveal which profile fields, model, operator, or objective produced it. Provider records, experimentation controls, data provenance, and repeated differential behavior are needed. ## Relationships [[Adaptive Governor]] · [[Audience Analytics]] · [[Identity Economy]] · [[Surveillance Capability]].
