I would build a little stoplight status dot into the page header. Red if you're fully untrusted. Yellow if you're semi-trusted by a token, and it shows you the status of the token, e.g. the number of requests remaining on it. Green if you're logged in or on a trusted subnet or something. The status widget would links to all the relevant docs about the trust system. No attempt would be made to hide the workings of the trust system.
