+*****************************************
+Policy, access control, data manipulation
+*****************************************
+
+Features in this section allow to configure what clients can get access to what
+DNS data, i.e. DNS data filtering and manipulation.
+
+:ref:`mod-policy` specify global policies applicable to all requests,
+e.g. for blocking access to particular domain. :ref:`mod-view` allow
+to specify per-client policies, e.g. block or unblock access
+to a domain only for subset of clients.
+
+It is also possible to modify data returned to clients, either by providing
+:ref:`mod-hints` (answers with statically configured IP addresses),
+:ref:`mod-dns64` translation, or :ref:`mod-renumber`.
+
+Additional modules offer protection against various DNS-based attacks,
+see :ref:`mod-rebinding` and :ref:`mod-refuse_nord`.
+
+At the very end, module :ref:`mod-daf` provides HTTP API for run-time policy
+modification, and generally just offers different interface for previously
+mentioned features.
