Terms of use is a set of documents regulating the usage of client personal data by a provider. The full kit of the existing terms and conditions is available in the section "Personal data management" → "Terms of use"
After you have updated your BILLmanager to version 5.153, the system will automatically convert the existing links to the Privacy policy and Terms of use to the documents located in the section "Terms of use". This section will have two mandatory conditions (documents): User agreement and Privacy policy. Links to the documents themselves will not be changed. If you have not specified links to the Privacy policy and Terms of use in your brand settings yet, convertation will not take place.
There are four types of conditions:
- Privacy policy;
- User agreement;
