## Changelog

### 1.0 (2026-10-01)

- First version.
- Track privacy policies, terms of service, cookie policies and DPA / subprocessor lists for up to 500 company domains or exact policy URLs. For domains the Actor finds the documents from footer links, usual paths (`/privacy`, `/privacy-policy`, `/legal/privacy`, `/terms`, `/tos`, `/legal` ...) and legal index pages, respecting robots.txt; the result is remembered for 30 days.
- Snapshots in a named key-value store per monitor; the first run saves baselines ("baseline saved" rows), later runs return a row only on change (`includeUnchanged` is prefilled for Apify's daily test, default off).
- Change rows: document type and URL, change size, added and removed paragraphs (capped), the policy's own "last updated" date, and a rule-based classification (no AI) of ten topics with evidence, old → new values and subprocessor names added or removed.
- Pay per event: `page-checked` at $0.002 per document fetched and compared. Failed fetches, robots.txt skips, domains without documents and info rows are free.
