SETTINGS
Cookie Policy/Banner Updates
To ensure we are complying with the most up-to-date cookie laws, we have updated our cookie policy and banner in the following ways:
- Option to opt-out of Non-essential cookies: This is an additional setting that empowers you to restrict Thought Industries non-essential cookies from dropping for your learner before consent.
- Customizable Policy: You are now able to write and present your own cookie policy and language from within the provided banner.
- Banner Redesign: The banner is being redesigned to match official silver standard compliance.
Please see our article about configuring cookies on your site for more details.
Action Required
With the release of this update, no default policy will be enabled and you must configure your own if you wish to display one from the cookie banner. If you have CSS targeting your cookie banner, please be prepared to remove or reconfigure.
CERTIFICATES
Displaying Expired Certificates
Do you have learners looking for their expired certificates? Search no further, friends! With this update, you can opt-in to a continual display of certificate history within transcripts or the dashboard activity widget, even if the certificate has been replaced with a newer version.
Navigate to Settings > Certification > Transcript Settings to enable this feature. See our article on Certificate Expirations for more details.
