#Questions people ask

Are the ready-made policies legal advice?

No. They are a starting point. Read each one and change it to fit your organisation. Anything only you can decide is marked [FILL], and the policy cannot be published until you fill it.

What happens when I publish a new version?

Everybody is asked to read it again. What each person agreed to before stays on record, word for word.

Can I publish a policy without asking for acknowledgement?

Yes. Untick the acknowledgement box and it shows as "For reading only — nobody is asked to acknowledge it."
