Frequently Asked Questions
What populates the shortcodes in the privacy policy?
Shortcodes are populated from two sources: your account settings — such as entity type, contact information, and DPO details — and your latest website scan results, which provide cookie, plugin, and service data. Triggering a rescan updates scan-dependent shortcodes automatically.
Can I add or remove shortcodes from the template?
The shortcodes listed here are part of the pre-built Secure Privacy privacy policy and cookie declaration templates. You can add custom text sections around them using the Preview and edit section in your dashboard, but the system-generated shortcode content cannot be manually edited.
What should I do if a shortcode is showing placeholder text instead of real data?
Placeholder text in a shortcode usually means the relevant account setting has not been completed or a rescan has not been run since the required data was added. Check your account settings for completeness and trigger a new website scan to refresh cookie and plugin data.
