Institution administrators can add a Legal Policy and a Transcript Disclaimer so users can easily access, review, and reference this information. These notices provide important information about applicable terms, conditions, responsibilities, and limitations related to using the platform and its transcript features. Centralizing these materials helps ensure important policies remain visible and available to the entire campus community.
After adding the legal policy and transcript disclaimer, they appear on the Legal page. Users can access this page at any time and review the information under the corresponding Legal Policy and Transcript Disclaimer tabs. This allows users to consult the applicable notices whenever they need clarification or additional details.
To add / edit these, log in to EchoVideo as an institutional admin and go to Settings > Institution Settings > Legal Policies, as shown in the image below.
