The consent statement is enforced and is required by default, as it is crucial to obtain permission from your clients if you intend to use your client's testimonial in future marketing materials
However, you can change it to be optional or hidden.
Our guide here is divided into three parts: where to check your consent's permission/display, how to change your consent statement, and how to see if your clients gave their consent.
Consent permission/display
📣 Before starting, you need to create a new space first. A space is like a container to hold all your testimonials.
While you are on the dashboard page, on the right side of each space card, there is a ⚙️ icon. Click that, and you will see a drop-down list. Choose "Edit the space."
Select the "Extra Settings" button underneath the live preview to see the available extra settings.
From there, you will be able to change your consent display.
Options: Required, Optional, and Hidden.
Lastly, save the changes.
Change your consent statement
Our default consent statement is:
"I give permission to use this testimonial across social channels and other marketing efforts."
If you want to change it, follow the steps listed above and place the statement you want under the "Consent Statement" field.
If your terms are lengthy and you want to provide a link pointing to your consent terms, you can check the box next to "Link to your own consent" and submit your URL below.
Once the link has been saved, the consent statement will change to "I agree to the terms (link of your consent) and give permission to use this testimonial."
Checking your client's consent/permission
You can check your client's permission in two ways.
From your space dashboard
If you have chosen to have consent permission as optional, you will see a ✅ or ⛔ icon within the testimonial card.
Downloading your testimonial log
The log is a downloaded file for the testimonials from your clients. Choose the "More" option and select "Download testimonial log."
The downloaded PDF will give you the answer:
