## Why this rule exists

A message flow pointing at a different domain usually means consent is collected on a partner or platform property, which raises the consent-transfer question directly. Where it is legitimate, it needs explaining rather than leaving for a reviewer to infer.

## How to fix it

Reference the brand's own domain in the message flow. Where consent is collected on a third-party platform, say so explicitly and explain the relationship.

## Example of a compliant value

```text
Brand website acmecoffee.com; message flow references acmecoffee.com/signup.
```
