Compliance & Policy Workflow
Creators should keep campaign operations aligned with policy and legal requirements. Novus provides technical controls (unsubscribe support, preference center, policy acceptance gating) to reduce operational risk.
Recommended flow: review Terms and Privacy updates, validate sender/profile readiness, run test sends, then launch production campaigns.
FAQ
Where should I start as a creator?
Create a newsletter, run bootstrap defaults, configure sender/provider settings, generate a draft, then test-send before broadcast.
How do I avoid repeated AI outputs?
Use the latest generation controls in editor/suggestions; freshness tokens and varied generation context are now built into AI routes.
Can subscribers control what they receive?
Yes. Subscribers can set status, scope, privacy mode, frequency, topic preferences, and sub-niches via hosted preferences pages.
Can I embed signup on existing sites?
Yes. Use /dashboard/integrations for copy/paste button, widget, popup, footer, sidebar, and landing-embed snippets. API examples are optional for advanced teams.
How do I confirm production readiness?
Run lint + build + readiness checks, verify env vars, test subscription/send/preference flows, and confirm policy review acceptance before launch.
Where are legal and policy references located?
Use Privacy, Terms, and Cookie pages from the footer, and align campaign operations to those requirements before production sends.
Future Integrations Plan
Novus has a staged integration roadmap covering automation connectors, CRM sync, analytics exports, and commerce/CMS bridges.
