You can use this feature to communicate your organization's terms, policies, or data protection requirements. **Note:** Custom consent requirements are available with the [Branding & customization feature add-on](https://help.coderbyte.com/knowledge/add-ons?hsLang=en) and are included by default in **Bundle annual** and **Enterprise** plans. #### Customizing consent messages To customize your consent message, you must be the account owner. Navigate to **Custom library** \> **Messages**, then click **New custom message**. ![](https://help.coderbyte.com/hs-fs/hubfs/CleanShot%202025-06-12%20at%2013-58-56@2x-png.png?width=670&height=305&name=CleanShot%202025-06-12%20at%2013-58-56@2x-png.png) A modal will appear where you can edit the consent message candidates will see before beginning their assessment or interview. ![](https://help.coderbyte.com/hs-fs/hubfs/click%20update%20now%202-png.png?width=670&height=505&name=click%20update%20now%202-png.png) #### Consent requirements for assessments By default, all assessments display a consent checkbox before candidates begin.
