enmarcarme en las políticas

Spanish to English Other General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters
Me acusa de ver páginas prohibidas, pues trato de enmarcarme en las políticas de ICT.

I'm not sure about enmarcarme here. Does it mean he is trying to read up on ICT policies so that he can prove he was in the right, or is he saying that's he's trying to stay within the bounds of ICT policies or something else?

Many thanks in advance.

I think it's like you say, reading up/cataloging in order to determinate better their policies.

I try to stay within ICT guidelines

Sometimes marco is 'guidelines' and enmarcar reminded me of that. Also it makes sense in the context.
