  4. Choose whether the policy should be active on all sites of your Siteimprove account, or only on specific sites.
  5. Set the priority level for the policy.
  6. Choose if you want to make the policy visible in other modules.
  7. Confirm your changes by clicking the Confirm button.Choose_sites_you_want_this_policy_to_be_active_and_the_priority

You can now view the policy that you've added in the platform, under Policy > My Policies.

Note: If you use Policy Library to create a Policy that already exists in your account, both Policies will show up in the Policies section of the platform. You should delete one of the Policies to prevent redundancy.
If you cannot find the Policy you need in the Policy Library, then you can create your own, or browse frequently used Policies in Siteimprove.
