For instance, reference to a resource's (a) cookie policy, (b) privacy statement, (c) security policy, e.g., a responsible disclosure policy, (d) terms and conditions, or (e) a DNT policy as required by AB370.

I propose to add metadata such that UI's can use these hooks when providing information to the user, when needed.
