Explanation
Object Tagging in Snowflake allows administrators to create custom key-value metadata labels (tags) and assign them to database objects such as tables, columns, schemas, and warehouses. These tags support data governance use cases like data classification (e.g., PII, sensitive), cost tracking, and policy enforcement. Secure views and secure functions are privacy features that hide underlying query logic from non-owners. Row-level security (via row access policies) restricts which rows a user can see, but does not involve metadata labeling.
