# Custom consent requirements

## Customize your consent checkbox to require candidates to agree to terms, policies, or data protection practices before they begin an assessment or interview.

**Note:** Custom consent requirements are available to customers on our **Bundle** subscription or have the [Branding & Customization add-on](https://help.coderbyte.com/knowledge/add-ons?hsLang=en).

To customize your consent checkbox text, first ensure you are the **account** **owner.** Then, head to **Custom library** in the main navigation bar \> **Messages.**

Click **Edit **on either the **Default consent for assessments** and/or **Default consent for interviews** to see a modal appear where you can edit your message.
