 - The MutatingAdmissionPolicy describes the abstract logic of a policy
   (think: "this policy sets a particular label to a particular value").
 
-- A MutatingAdmissionPolicyBinding links the above resources together and provides scoping.
-  If you only want to set an `owner` label for `Pods`, and not other API kinds, the binding is where you

 - A _parameter resource_ provides information to a MutatingAdmissionPolicy to make it a concrete
   statement (think "set the `owner` label to something like `company.example.com`").
   Parameter resources refer to Kubernetes resources, available in the Kubernetes API. They can be built-in types or extensions,
   such as a {{< glossary_tooltip term_id="CustomResourceDefinition" text="CustomResourceDefinition" >}} (CRD). For example, you can use a ConfigMap as a parameter.
