Role Separation: Clear division of responsibilities and access between different user types in a system. In advertising platforms, role separation ensures administrators cannot spend on behalf of users and users cannot access organizational controls.

Clear separation of roles protects organizations from compliance risk and ensures accountability. When roles are blurred, it becomes unclear who is responsible for advertising decisions and spend.
