How do you remove a privacy policy from a CHT Instance?

Hi there!

I have an instance that has a privacy policy uploaded to it. How do I remove this policy so none is shown after login?

thanks!

I was able to delete the privacy policies from the “App Management” page (as admin user).

App Management → Display → Privacy policies

I clicked on “Delete” for each policy, and then clicked on “Submit”.

For my offline user, the privacy policy page disappeared after syncing.

When I go there, mine is empty :frowning:

Hi @mrjones , sorry about this — this can happen if, between two config uploads, the privacy-policies.json file is removed.

When the new config was uploaded without this file, the previously deployed privacy policy was not automatically cleared; this step was skipped.

To remove the privacy policy page on login, we will need to set an empty privacy-policies.json file and upload it to the instance using cht-conf: Privacy Policies – Community Health Toolkit

This will clear any previously configured privacy policy.

Thanks so much for the tip @paulalogno !

I see also that there was an issue filed to fix the blank admin GUI I mentioned above, affects 5.0.0 and 5.0.1. Thanks @diana for the ticket!
