Privacy Notice and Conditions of Use at Login

Hello,

My cart is set to require a person to register first (create an account) before being able to view the catalog. Is there any way to make the Privacy Notice and Conditions of Use public at the login/create account page?

I've tried going into the Config>Regulations and toying with those settings. I thought I could trace the Privacy Notice option and clone it for the Conditions of Use. Pretty pleased with myself for coming up with the idea, I happily set the "Confirm Privacy Notice During Account Creation Procedure" to true to see how it would work on the storefront before I started.

However, when I returned to login page, I clicked on the "The privacy statement can be read here" pseudo link for the Privacy Notice, the page refreshed and I was again presented with the blank login page. Blah. So much for my great idea. If I can't get the available setting of Privacy Notice to work, I don't think I should try cloning it for Conditions of Use.

Does anyone know what's going on?

Or better yet, is there a less complicated way to allow pages such as "Conditions of Use" to be accessible to an unauthorized customer?

Re: Privacy Notice and Conditions of Use at Login

If you look in the language file english.php you can see how the define is created to include the link to privacy:

  define('TEXT_PRIVACY_CONDITIONS_DESCRIPTION', 'Please acknowledge you agree with our privacy statement by ticking the following box. The privacy statement can be read <a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_PRIVACY, '', 'SSL') . '"><span class="pseudolink">here</span></a>.');

You can use something similar to this ...

Re: Privacy Notice and Conditions of Use at Login

Thanks for the clue, Ajeh! I'll give it a try.

Do I have to tweak any settings/code so the link works for a store set up to only allow authorized customers? As mentioned above, even the "here" link for the Privacy Statement currently does not work. If I play customer and click on the link to read the Privacy Statement before agreeing to it, the statement page does not display. Instead, the page refreshes and I'm again shown the login form.
