ograniczane

Ograniczane is a Polish term that functions as an adjective or as a present passive participle derived from the verb ograniczać, meaning to limit or restrict. It describes something that is being restricted or placed under limits, rather than something that has already been limited.

The form is widely used in official, legal, economic, and administrative language to indicate ongoing constraints. In grammatical terms it is a non-finite participle that can agree with nouns in gender and number (for example ograniczane przepisy, ograniczane dane osobowe, ograniczane środki).

Typical contexts include data protection, budgeting, and regulatory regimes, where certain rights, resources, or rules are subject to ongoing limitations. The contrast with ograniczony (limited or restricted in a completed sense) marks a distinction between ongoing restrictions and completed ones.

Related terms include ograniczony, ograniczenie, and ograniczanie. The word is common in Polish-language media, law, and administration to denote prevailing or planned constraints. It is often used to describe processes, policies, or resources that are not yet fully constrained but are subject to continual limitation.
