We’ve added support for tables in the Secure Privacy Policy Editor.

With this enhancement, you can now:

• Insert tables directly into privacy and cookie policies
• Add and edit content inside table cells
• Easily customize tables by inserting or deleting rows and adjusting properties

This makes it easier to organize information and present policies in a clear, structured format.

For more information, refer to the support article.

We've rolled out an important update to our web platform, bringing enhanced functionality and tighter alignment with our Mobile App SDKs.

These improvements will help you manage compliance for your mobile applications directly from your Secure Privacy dashboard.

Direct Legal Template Assignment for Mobile Apps:

You can now assign legal templates (e.g., Privacy Policies, Cookie Policies) directly to your mobile applications via the dedicated mobile app screen within the web platform. This simplifies the process of ensuring your app's legal documentation is always up-to-date.

Policy Assignment for Mobile Apps 

Similar to templates, policies can now be directly associated with your mobile applications through the mobile app screen, providing a unified management experience for your app's compliance settings.

Bug Fixes & Styling Improvements
