Who operates this and how it is built

Who we are

Legal name: The Art of Service Pty Ltd. Address: GPO Box 2673, Brisbane QLD 4001, Australia. Contact: support@theartofservice.com. Operator: Gerard Blokdyk. The Art of Service has published compliance and audit material since around 2001, and now builds small, single-job tools that read a rule and a document against each other.

How this is built

Every requirement on this site is our own statement of the provision it cites. Nothing is written from a search snippet or from memory. The article record was read from the official EUR-Lex text saved on 2026-10-17, and every field carries a source pointer to the article it came from. Where the text states no date, the page says so. Where a market's regime is not held, the rules page names it and states nothing from it. See how this is built and the standards we hold.

What it will not claim

It does not claim that any page will be cited by a search engine or an AI assistant. Most citations are decided off-site. It does not claim to be affiliated with, endorsed by or approved by the European Union or any regulator. It is not legal advice and it does not certify.

The scope and perimeter workspace

On the paid plan the article record also carries a scope and perimeter workspace: a per-entity perimeter table, the Member State de-scoping election, the transposition watch, the data collection calendar, the marked-up statement with each section kept or removed, the assurance engagement addendum, the reporting manual reconciliation, the supplier request that names the statutory right to decline, and the digital tagging plan. Every register is a worksheet rendered from the same record the pages and the reading use, and every field names the article it rests on. Open the workspace.
