Customizing Intake Forms

DataGrail allows customers to manage their content within the Privacy Request Center, Intake Forms, Review Pages, and Success Pages.

Customizations have been designed to be flexible to handle multiple customer use cases. Customers can choose a few different ways to apply customizations to their intake experience. Customers can apply changes across all policies and privacy rights or choose to manage changes to a single policy or privacy right.

DataGrail User Roles

Only the following User Role will have access to the Customization selection:

  • Super Admin

Customization Hierarchy

The Privacy Request Center allows for flexible content management throughout the intake experience. Customers can manage content changes to a single policy or across all policies. Customizations made to individual privacy policies will override any global customizations defined for "All Policies".

"All Policies" Customizations

The All Policies customization will apply customizations across all policies. This means the content changes made to all policies will be displayed to a requester unless there is a content change for a single policy.

Publishing an All Policies content customization will update content without customizing all draft policies. Example, when updating the Description for Privacy Request Center in All Policies and publishing them, these changes will be applied to all of the Privacy Request Center Descriptions in all draft policies unless a customization has been made to that field.

Single Policy Customizations

Customizations can be created for a single request policy (ex: CPRA, GDPR, etc.). Any changes to a single policy will only be displayed to requesters whose location corresponds with that request policy. Customizations made to a single policy will override customizations to "All Policies" Customizations for that policy alone.

Customizing Text Content

DataGrail's Settings tab hosts all form customizations. The customizations tab will have a default published state for the standard content that DataGrail provides to all customers.

  1. Navigate to the Settings tab.
  2. Select the Customization tab under Request Manager.
  3. Select New Customization.
  4. Select the specific Policy to begin making edits.
  5. Click on the component you would like to edit.

Rich Text

NOTE

Selecting "All Policies" will apply customizations to all policies without a specific customization already defined.

Rich Text Formatting

DataGrail's rich text editor allows the following components to be customized/added:

  • Font Size
  • Text Justification
  • Unordered Lists
  • Ordered Lists
  • Bold
  • Italics
  • Underline

Adding Custom Questions

For each policy, you can add additional questions or sections to the intake form to help privacy managers or internal admins process requests. The questions can have string (text) responses. These responses will be visible in the ticket processing phases via the Request Manager portal. The responses can also be submitted to Direct Contact integrations, to help internal admins process a request.

  1. To create a custom question on a draft policy view of the Privacy Request Center, navigate to the Intake Form tab.
  2. Select Add New Section.
  3. Set the title of the section and begin adding questions. You can add as many custom questions within the section as necessary to process your DSR requests. Adding Questions
  4. Save the section. You can edit the section as long as the policy you are working on is in draft mode. Click on the section again to open the drawer and make changes as needed.

Data Subject Relationship Options

Each request type includes a Relationship to [Company Name] question on the form by default. The label for this question can be modified within the Privacy Request Center customizations. The relationship options can be edited by contacting support@datagrail.io. Answers to this question can be used as conditions in a workflow.

Previewing Changes

The customization preview will display ALL possible components available for customization, but what is shown to a consumer on the intake form depends on the configuration of the request policy and the requester's location.

Publishing Customizations

Customers can publish changes to their intake form using the Publish Changes button. This will immediately publish the changes made to the customization in the form. Once published, the updates will be available immediately to requesters.

Once complete, a drawer will appear with the changes that have been made to each page.

Review Published Changes

TIP

To see what specifically has been updated, you can expand the changes by clicking the downward arrow.

Updating a Customization

Customers can have one draft state and one published state of a policy available at any time. Un-publishing a customization can be done by replacing it with a new published policy.

Archived customizations can be found at the bottom of the Customizations Page.

Customizing Policies with No Rights configured

DataGrail allows for request policies to be created without any privacy rights. This signals to requesters that the region or locations associated with the request policy cannot submit a request from this location.

No Policy Default

This page is customizable. Select the component containing the warning to customize the content on this page. To edit the warning message, click into the text box. The image can be toggled on or off and the error messages can be edited or removed
