How to add a new legal document using the survey

Steps to take to add a new legal document to your Clym widget, such as your Privacy Policy or Terms of Service



In today’s regulatory landscape, legal documents like a Privacy Policy, Accessibility Statement, and Terms of Service are more than just best practices - they are often requirements under data privacy and accessibility regulations such as GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, and accessibility laws and standards. These documents explain how your organization collects and uses data, outline user rights and responsibilities, and communicate your commitment to accessibility and compliance. Having them in place, up to date, and clearly presented to visitors helps build trust, reduces legal risk, and demonstrates that your organization takes compliance, transparency, and user experience seriously.


Through the Clym widget and Governance portal, you can centrally manage your legal policies and statements, ensure the correct versions are published, and present them consistently across your website(s). This helps ensure visitors can always find the information they need while giving your team confidence that your compliance-related content is accurate, accessible, and aligned with regulatory requirements.


In your Clym Control Center, you can use the survey functionality to generate a custom legal document that automatically populates key information based on your organization's needs.


Creating a legal document using the survey functionality is an easy 3-step process:



Please note that, depending on your account, you may see that certain legal documents are required to be completed in your Clym Control Center account.
