between- relating 2 entities or relating across distinct entities
(persons & orgs)... among- relating collective entities

some may call it a grammatical nit, so for conversational purposes it'd
likely be fine to use one... but for legal and tech engineering, that
precision would be important.

"contexts" meant to convey other 'environment variables' at play for the
respective dimension (collection, use, disclosure).... that part may be
problematic not from an accuracy standpoint but insofar as it invites
further description itself (again, in the interests of laying out
primitives for legal and tech engineering).
