Privacy Consent Modal

The Privacy Consent Modal is a feature designed to enhance privacy management. This customizable tool enables administrators to craft a personalized privacy message, incorporate links to additional resources, and adjust the call-to-action (CTA) button according to their requirements. The Privacy Consent Modal displays a tailored paragraph of text on the screen, ensuring users are informed about their privacy options before starting a conversation with the chatbot.

Customers are strongly advised to consult their legal counsel to ensure compliance with such laws, rules, and regulations. Forethought disclaims all liability for any non-compliance, legal issues, or disputes that may arise from the use of the privacy feature.
