You can also use Confluence space and page permissions to ensure that content is only available to the right user groups. You can use a hierarchy of spaces, parent pages, and child pages to ensure that relevant content is grouped together. This will be useful when building the structure of your intranet in Refined. Think about how the spaces and their content will be used, and also how the various spaces relate to each other.
