About Terms of Use Documents
About terms of use documents.
The terms of use feature enables you to set the terms and conditions to access the Console or a target application, based on the user's consent. This feature allows the identity domain administrator to set relevant disclaimers for legal or compliance requirements and enforce the terms by refusing the service unless consent is received.
In an identity domain, you can optionally grant or deny access to applications based on the consent provided by the user. When the user logs in for the first time, the disclaimers for legal or compliance requirements are displayed. The user has the option of either consenting or denying consent. If the user does not provide consent by accepting the terms of use, they will not be allowed to access the application.
When you create a terms of use, you add the customized content and language that you want to display and choose the applications that will use the terms. You can also set an expiration date for the consent to require users to provide consent again after a set period of time.
When you add a terms of service to an identity domain, it is always added in the deactivated state.
