Split identity-data storage
Account records and assessment data live in separate planes. The data plane is addressed by an anonymous data locator, not by name, email, or a normal user ID field.

U.S. provisional application filed
Patent-pending anonymity architecture.
Rilev has filed a U.S. provisional patent application covering core parts of its split identity-data architecture: encrypted data locators, zero-knowledge recovery, and unlinkable key rotation for anonymous psychological data.
Encrypted data locator
The link between an account and its data is stored as encrypted pointer material. The readable locator is not kept in the identity record.
Zero-knowledge recovery
Recovery verifies user-controlled factors while keeping the recovery encryption material on the client side, so the server does not need plaintext recovery answers or a plaintext data locator during recovery.
Unlinkable key rotation
A short-lived recovery rotation token lets the account rotate to a new access key without sending the plaintext data locator back to the server.
Plain English
What the filing is about
The filing is directed to the system shape that keeps identity and sensitive assessment data separated across the account lifecycle. It is not just encryption at rest and not just a privacy policy. It describes how the account is found, how access is verified, how the data locator is protected, and how recovery/key rotation works without rebuilding a readable identity-to-data link.
A split identity-data architecture for anonymous psychological assessment records.
Encrypted data locators that connect an anonymous account to data without storing a readable link in the identity plane.
Domain-separated recovery material that separates server-side verification from client-side decryption.
A recovery/key-rotation flow that preserves the anonymous data locator while replacing account access credentials.
What patent pending means here
Patent pending means a U.S. provisional patent application has been filed with the USPTO for the described architecture. It does not mean a patent has issued. It does identify the architecture as the subject of a filed patent application while that application is pending.
This is not a statement that a patent has been granted.
This is not a claim that every feature in Rilev is covered by the application.
This is not a promise that no outside infrastructure provider ever handles standard operational metadata.
This is not legal advice or a substitute for the issued claims of any future patent.
