Collective Intelligence can add broad context when a suitably protected and sufficiently large aggregate exists. Your store evidence remains primary, and no other business's raw data is revealed.
Use this guide when
A Liva 7 explanation includes a collective pattern or benchmark context.
Follow this route
-
Identify the contribution
Read which part of the decision uses a store-specific signal and which part uses protected aggregate context.
-
Check comparability
Review whether market, category, period and commercial conditions make the pattern relevant enough to use.
-
Keep the weighting modest
Treat the collective pattern as context or a candidate prior, not as a command or substitute for local evidence.
-
Challenge the result
Use Ask Liva or the evidence panel to see whether your store information agrees, conflicts or remains insufficient.
Before you finish
- No other business can be identified
- Small cohorts are suppressed
- Your store can opt out where the current product and policy permit
