    providing the first set of filtered data and the first data release policy agreement to a first information consumer; and

    enforcing the first data release policy with the first data release policy agreement;

    providing the first set of filtered data to a second datastore;

    filtering the first set of filtered data according to a second data release policy to generate a second set of filtered data;

    generating a second data release policy agreement;

    providing the second set of filtered data and the second data release policy agreement to a second information consumer; and

    using the second data release policy agreement to enforce the second data release policy; and

    whereinthe first data release policy is enforced by the first data release policy agreement upon the acceptance of the first data release policy agreement by the first information consumer;

    the filtered data is masked according to the first data release policy;

    the filtering is performed according to metadata associated with the set of data and according to attributes associated with the set of data;
