The text of one provision, by default as clean Markdown — about a tenth the size of the reader page for the same provision, with no navigation, no scripts and no boilerplate. `law` is the abbreviation as a citation writes it ('BGB', 'DSGVO', 'BDSG 2018', 'RVG'); `ref` is the bare number, with any letter suffix and no § or Art. ('622', '823', '3a', '83'). Aliases and case variants resolve. POINT IN TIME: `as_of=YYYY-MM-DD` returns the version stored for that date. Read `version_coverage` on every answer — the version archive begins 2019-06-10, and a date before that answers `outside_coverage` with the law's amendment register attached. That is a limit of our archive and says nothing about whether the provision existed. Every answer carries `first_observed`, `valid_to`, `date_precision` and `amendment_note`. `first_observed` is the day we first saw the text, NOT the legal Inkrafttreten — do not compute a deadline from it without reading `date_precision` (day / week / launch; 'launch' means the date is a floor). TRUST: `fundstelle` is the gazette citation of the authentic text — the citation a court accepts. `authoritative_source` names what our copy is (a consolidated, non-official reading version) and where the binding text lives. Quote the provision from `markdown`; the reader page at `url` carries per-Absatz anchors (#abs-N) if you want to deep-link a single Absatz.
