Description

Although we don't capitalize "sensitive data" and don't use that phrase as a Defined Term, we do have an internal definition for that same term that doesn't exactly match how it is used in our CP/CPS. It would be cleaner to use a different phrase here, to prevent any confusion for readers who are familiar with the internal definition.
