| If you are using an MDM solution or Fleet's MDM features, one of which is required to deploy these profiles, you can deploy a "Privacy Preferences Policy Control" policy to grant fleetd or osquery that level of access. | ||

It grants Fleet's agent (fleetd) the required level of access. |

@allenhouchins is there a different spot we want to put this profile if we're going to link to it from this guide?

@noahtalerman this is one that we actively use, and likely always will, so it can stay where it is currently. As long as we use the trick you showed me where we link to the commit version of the file, if we end up moving it for whatever reason, the link will continue to work.
