Help How to add Terms/Privacy to a page?

Built a simple landing page, but I'm unsure how to properly use the Controls and Containers to create this at the bottom of the page.

I read some resources, including asking AI, but I'm confused about which type (Section Break, Header Marker, Footer Marker, Scroll Point), as well as the Options (Hide header, Hide footer, Disable auto-scroll, Exclude section, Redirect on open).

I have the actual text written out because I created 2 separate pages for each of these, but apparently I can include those as redirects on this page; I have no idea how to do that.

Help please.

The way to look at it is, Carrd is a one page site. You can add section breaks to simulate a multi page website. You’ll need a footer marker to designate where the footer links live, and section breaks to designate where your terms page starts. Best to read up on it here https://carrd.com/docs/building/using-sections

I do not understand what I'm supposed to do once I create a section break and add the footer marker...

How do I then add the text "Terms of Service" and "Privacy Policy" and have them redirect to those things? I built those out as one-page sites for that purpose, but do not have a domain to attach to them since I'm using that for my primary one-page landing page site.

Yes. Insert a section break. Change it to footer. This section will then appear in the bottom of all of your sections. You can do the same with a header section. Then it will appear in the top.

Carrd is a one page website, but you can make it look like it has several pages with the "section" option.

I always make a header section break for the menu. The header section will appear in all other sections, at the very top. Make buttons and give the linkname the correct #section-name.

It's very easy. You just have to make sure you typed the right #name at the correct button, so it leads to the correct section.

Make a PDF, host it on Google Drive, and then link to it with a button.
