What's Changed

We’ve introduced new Privacy & Advanced Optionsarrow-up-right in Consent approval forms, giving recipients greater control over their personal data and how it’s used.

1. Remain Anonymous

Recipients can now choose to stay anonymous when submitting a Consent form.

  • Users can opt out of providing personal details at the start of the flow

  • A Recognition profile will still be created, but:

    • It will use a unique anonymous ID instead of a name

    • It will include a “remain anonymous” metadata tag

  • Ensures privacy while maintaining secure tracking and administration

2. Skip Photo Capture

You can now allow recipients to complete consent without submitting a photo.

  • Ideal for privacy-sensitive or low-visual use cases

  • When enabled, users can:

    • Skip photo capture entirely

    • Proceed with consent using alternative identification methods

Matching options include:

  • Match profile using ID only (manual matching required)

  • Use photo to match appearances (if a photo is provided, manual matching still required)

If this option is disabled, photo capture remains mandatory.

3. Facial Recognition Opt In/Out

Recipients now have control over whether their photo can be used for Facial Recognition Technology (FRT).

  • After submitting a photo, users can choose to opt in or opt out

If opted in:

  • A facial recognition vector is generated

  • Enables identification across new and existing assets in the HIVO library

If opted out:

  • The photo is stored with the consent form

  • No recognition vector is created

  • The profile will:

    • Have Recognition disabled

    • Include a “frt opt out” metadata tag

These enhancements help you build more privacy-first, flexible consent workflows, while ensuring compliance and user trust.


[New Feature] External Template Approval - Centralized design template management

Following the launch of the External Approval feature, we have introduced key updates to help Admins easily manage shared links while providing a more professional viewing experience for external partners.

🔹 What’s new?

"Shared Templates" Management Tab: A new Shared Templates tab has been added to the Links section. From here, you can:

  • Manage and track all active external template links.

  • Monitor view status, expiration dates, and revoke access if necessary.


[Enhancements] Support Tickets Tab

We’ve rolled out a series of improvements to the Tickets tab in the Support section to make ticket management faster, clearer, and more flexible.

1. Improved Search & Filtering

  • Search tickets by keyword (ticket name not ticket ID)

  • New filters available:

    • User

    • Status (supports selecting multiple statuses)

    • Date

2. Ticket List Enhancements

  • Added Ticket ID column for easier reference and tracking

  • Improved sorting and filtering experience:

    • Default sorting can prioritize newest tickets first

    • Better visibility of active tickets (e.g. In Progress, Submitted)

  • Added new columns:

    • Description (preview in one line)

    • Last Modified (for monitoring updates)

  • Improved usability:

    • Ticket rows are now more intuitive to interact with (easier access to details)

    • Reduced reliance on less intuitive edit icons

3. Ticket Detail Updates

  • New capabilities:

    • Change ticket status directly

    • Add evidence/attachments (including file uploads, not just URLs)

    • Clickable asset links to quickly open related assets

These updates aim to streamline ticket workflows and provide better visibility into support requests.


[Enhancements] Adjustable Column Widths in Table Element (Template Editor)

We’ve added more flexibility to table layouts in the Template Editor.

🔹 Key Features

  • You can now resize table column widths directly when select a table in editor.

  • Easily adjust specific columns (e.g. make the second column wider) to better fit your content and layout needs.

🔹 Why it matters

  • Greater control over table formatting

  • Improved alignment with design expectations (e.g. matching layouts from tools like InDesign)


[Improvements] Export "Public CDN URLs" by CSV

  • Resolved an issue where exporting a CSV file from the “PUBLIC CDN URLS” tab could result in an empty file

  • CSV exports from this tab now correctly include all expected data
