# Visibility and privacy

Agent Studio → Visibility & privacy: choose the domains where Darwin's chat runs, hide the opening message on certain pages, and add a consent line with a link to your privacy policy.

This is the Markdown version of https://www.meetdarwin.ai/help/agent-studio/visibility-and-privacy, published by Darwin and generated on 23 October 2026.

Find it in Darwin: Agent Studio → Visibility & privacy (https://app.meetdarwin.ai/admin/agent?tab=visibility). Updated Oct 13, 2026.

This tab controls where the chat runs, where the opening message stays hidden, and the privacy line visitors see.

1. **Allow your domains**

   Under **Allowed domains**, type a domain (1), such as `www.example.com`, and select **Add domain** (2). The chat only runs on the domains listed here. Use `*.example.com` to include every subdomain.

   These changes save as soon as you add or remove a domain, without **Save changes**.

2. **Hide the opening message on some pages**

   Under **Where the opening message appears**, list the pages where the opening message should not show in **Hide on these pages**, one path per line. `/pricing` hides it on that page only; `/blog/*` hides it on every page under `/blog`. The chat button still shows on those pages.

   _Screenshot: The Hide on these pages box highlighted, holding /careers/* and /privacy on separate lines._

3. **Add a privacy notice**

   Under **Privacy notice**, type a **Consent line** (1). Once it has text, add the **Link to your privacy policy** (2). Leave the consent line empty to show nothing.

   _Screenshot: The Privacy notice section with the Consent line marked 1, reading By chatting you agree to our privacy policy, and the Link to your privacy policy field marked 2._

   The line appears under the message box in the chat.

4. **Save**

   Select **Save changes** to publish the hidden pages and the privacy notice. **Discard** goes back to what is saved.

## Good to know

- `*.example.com` covers subdomains only. To include `example.com` itself, add it too. `www.example.com` and `example.com` are separate entries.
- Removing a domain stops the chat answering there as soon as it saves.
- Paths are not case-sensitive, and a pasted full address works as well as a path.
- If the opening message is switched off on the [Messages](https://www.meetdarwin.ai/help/agent-studio/name-voice-and-opening) tab, the hidden pages apply when you turn it back on.

- [Messages: name, voice and opening](https://www.meetdarwin.ai/help/agent-studio/name-voice-and-opening): Write the opening message and reply buttons.
- [The chat isn't showing](https://www.meetdarwin.ai/help/fix-a-problem/chat-not-showing): What to check when the chat doesn't appear on your site.
