Hi!

After setting up my self-hosted private Discourse forum, the TOS and Privacy tabs were automatically generated. However, they are misleading and not really applicable for my case. Is there an option to remove/hide them?

Thanks!

Hey @brunall  
Welcome to Meta 👋

The tabs are automatically hidden if the `company name` site setting is empty.

You can also hide the links at the top of the about page with css:

```css
.nav-pills {
  .nav-item-tos,
  .nav-item-privacy {
    display: none;
  }
}

```

You can also optionally edit change them. Iirc they are located in the Staff Category.
