Manage purpose translations
Access Type: Data Manager - Editor
A purpose describes the reason your organization is collecting the end-user's data and how your organization processes that data. Didomi supports translations of the purpose name and description in a variety of languages. In this article, we will cover how Didomi manages translations for the three different groups of purposes:
View translations for any purpose by clicking Data Manager on the left-hand panel and ensuring the Purposes tab is selected on the subsequent page.
Click the Edit icon inline from any purpose on the list.
All currently configured translations for the purpose will be listed on the subsequent page.
IAB purpose translations
Translations for IAB purposes are not editable and are derived from translations provided by the IAB or translated by Didomi. Please contact your the Didomi support team for any questions or concerns related to the provided translations for IAB purposes.
Global purpose translations
