A technician is creating a Windows splash screen that details login expectations.

The appropriate choice is "Acceptable Use Policy" (Option D). This policy defines the rules for how users should use the system, including login expectations and proper behavior when using company resources. It's typically displayed as a splash screen to remind users of their responsibilities.

End-user license agreement (Option A) pertains to the terms of software usage.

Non-disclosure agreement (Option B) deals with confidentiality but is unrelated to login behavior.

Regulatory compliance (Option C) relates to adherence to laws and regulations, but it is not typically displayed on a splash screen for login expectations.
