+> As part of the ALZ portal deployment/configuration, policy and policy set definitions are created only at the intermediate management group, e.g. `contoso` that is a child of the tenant root management group, created during the ALZ deployment. Our automation does not assign any policies to the tenant root management group scope, only the ALZ hierarchy it deploys and its children, e.g. `contoso` and below. This approach aligns with the Cloud Adoption Framework's best practices for Azure Policy assignment, ensuring clear delineation of policy application and avoiding unintended policy inheritance across the entire tenant. By placing policies only at the intermediary root and its child management groups, we maintain compliance, flexibility, and alignment with organizational governance requirements. And also allow multiple management groups hierarchies to exist in a single tenant such as the [canary approach](https://aka.ms/alz/canary#example-scenarios-and-outcomes)
