PrivacyPolicyConsent
Asks: Set data privacy policy consent to ___
Default: Disabled

If this system preference is set to “Enforced”, when a patron attempts to log into the OPAC a privacy policy consent form will be presented to them. The patron will have to provide consent to the library’s privacy policy before they can gain access to their account details. If the patron does not consent to the privacy policy they will be logged out of their account.
If this system preference is set to “Permissive”, the patron will see the privacy policy consent form, but they will not be required to give consent to access their patron account.
If this system preference is set to “Disabled”, no privacy policy consent form will appear when a patron logs into the OPAC.
When set to “Enforced” or “Permissive”, PrivacyPolicyURL should contain a URL to the privacy policy.

PseudonymizationTransactionFields default: none selected
Description :
These system preferences add a way to pseudonymize patron data while keeping useful transaction information for reporting. Pseudonymization can be part of the library’s security and data protection practices, enabling the librarians to shorten the time they retain personal data in other Koha tables.
Pseudonymized data is stored in database tables pseudonymized_transactions (for transactions and patron data) and pseudonymized_borrower_attributes (for patron attributes).
No direct identifiers for the patron are recorded; the pseudonymized_transactions table uses an encrypted version of the borrowernumber.
After enabling the Pseudonymization system preference, edit the patron attribute types you want to record in the pseudonymized_borrower_attributes table. Mark those attributes as « Keep for pseudonymization ».
When Pseudonymization is enabled, data from fields selected in PseudonymizationPatronFields and PseudonymizationTransactionFields is recorded in the pseudonymized_transactions and pseudonymized_borrower_attributes tables. Entries are added for each new transaction (checkout, checkin, renew, on-site checkout). This is on top of transactions data being recorded in the usual database tables, e.g., issues and statistics.
Values in the pseudonymization tables are recorded « as they are » at the time of the transaction. These tables are not affected by the deletion of patrons or items.
Older entries in the pseudonymization tables can be deleted using the clean up database script.
Note
Data is not retrospectively added to the tables: only new transactions performed after Pseudonymization is enabled are recorded.
Avertissement
For pseudonymization to work, Bcrypt_settings must be filled in the Koha configuration file.

Valeurs :
