With Vanta, you can create and manage policies in multiple languages. For example, if some of your employees only speak English and others speak French, you may want to maintain policies in both languages. Vanta makes it easy to ensure employees view documents in their preferred language.
Note: The current supported languages (templates) are English, Spanish, German, French, Portuguese, Japanese, and Korean.

Click into the Policy you would like to edit
From the languages drop-down, select the languages you would like to create a version of the policy for
Select Get Started
Once the draft is created, use the dropdown menu above the name of the policy to select which language version of the policy you would like to edit
Select Save and close.
The language version will be available to edit and submit for approval from the Policy versions tab.

Specifying a Language for an Existing Policy
Policies created before Vanta enabled policies with multiple languages to have a language of "Not specified" because Vanta could not determine the language of those policies.
Select Edit, Renew, or Create a new version.
A modal will appear, asking you to confirm the policy's language. Choose the appropriate language and select Confirm.
