Access Denied / Locked out by Policy

I am the owner of subscription 4021f9f5-930c-4b71-a9b9-3b594634f5d3 and I accidentally applied an Azure Policy or access restriction that has revoked my own permissions, including access to create or view resource groups, policies, or role assignments. I no longer see the “Assignments” blade, and cannot manage the subscription even though I am the administrator.

Please assist in removing or bypassing the policy assignment or restoring my Owner access.
