# EU AI Act Article 50: Public Applicability Quick Check — Evidence Worksheet

**QCK-EUAI-ART50-001-WKS | ODA3 Institute | Companion Worksheet | Version 1.0 | Published | 5 August 2026**

## Purpose

This worksheet accompanies QCK-EUAI-ART50-001 (Version 1.0). Use it to record the answer, rationale and supporting evidence reference for each question, so a "Yes" or "No" is never recorded without a documented basis. Complete one worksheet per system or materially distinct use case.

This worksheet does not change, score or interpret the Quick Check. It is a recording tool only.

## System identification

| Field | Entry |
|---|---|
| System, product or workflow name | |
| Business owner | |
| Technical owner | |
| Jurisdictions and user populations served | |
| Organization's role(s) for this system (provider / deployer / both — may vary by obligation) | |
| Principal third-party models, platforms and content tools | |
| Date first placed on the market, if relevant | |
| Worksheet completed by | |
| Date completed | |

## Question record

| # | Question | Answer (Yes / No / Unsure) | Rationale | Evidence Reference | Evidence Custodian | Last Verified |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | EU connection | | | | | |
| 2 | Provider, deployer or both | | | | | |
| 3 | Direct interaction with people | | | | | |
| 4 | Synthetic content generation or manipulation | | | | | |
| 5 | Deepfakes | | | | | |
| 6 | Public-interest text | | | | | |
| 7 | Emotion recognition or biometric categorisation | | | | | |
| 8 | Pre-2 August 2026 transition claim | | | | | |

**Evidence Reference** should point to a retrievable artifact — a contract clause, Data Processing Agreement section, product specification, UI screenshot, model card, vendor attestation, regulatory correspondence, editorial policy document, or equivalent — not a restated conclusion. An answer without a completable Evidence Reference should be recorded as **Unsure**, not Yes or No.

## Result

| Result (per QCK-EUAI-ART50-001 "Read your result") | Applies? |
|---|---|
| Potential Article 50 applicability identified | |
| Responsibility or transition analysis incomplete | |
| No trigger identified in this initial screen | |

| Overall Outcome | |
|---|---|
| Proceed to Legal Review | |
| Additional Evidence Required | |
| Applicability Closed | |

## Minimum next-step record (carried from QCK-EUAI-ART50-001)

| Item | Entry |
|---|---|
| Completed answers and rationale | See table above |
| Provider/deployer determination | |
| Applicable trigger, exception and transition analysis | |
| Disclosure or marking-control owner | |
| Evidence repository/location and last verification date | |
| Known limitations and unresolved questions | |
| Required legal, technical or governance follow-up | |

## Re-screen trigger

Re-screen and complete a new worksheet whenever there is a material change involving: deployment geography, intended purpose, AI model or foundation model provider, user interaction pattern, content type, deployment architecture, ownership, legal role, applicable legislation or regulatory guidance, or a major software release.

## Notably Absent

This worksheet does not contain scoring, a compliance threshold, or a finding-severity method. It does not itself establish that an exception applies or that evidence is sufficient for a regulator — those determinations require system-specific legal and technical analysis using the recorded evidence as a starting point.

## Required limitation

> Organization-led self-assessment recording tool, used alongside QCK-EUAI-ART50-001. It does not constitute independent assurance, certification, regulatory approval, legal advice or a determination of compliance.
