Modify Contract Field Names & Descriptions

You can customize and remap event type parameters in your template terms to make item-level data more descriptive.

Example: You have a text3 event-type parameter that represents the festive season. Instead of showing text3 in your template terms, you can customize this parameter to display Festive Conversions and be more descriptive when partners refer to their contracts.

Description	The description of the event-type parameter.
Privacy Mode	The privacy mode controls if this data field is visible to partners in an event notification postback.

By setting the privacy mode to Hide, the Caller ID data point will be excluded from the postback notification sent to a partner, even if the field is populated in the system.Content goes here.
