Description

This should hopefully be a fairly easy one.

The Help & privacy menu item in the main menu currently opens a full page listing only a few resources with no obvious way to get back to where you were. This should be turned into a submenu of the main menu, or alternatively, a small modal dialog if a submenu is not possible with how the menu is set up.

Research direction

Start by tracing the main menu and the current Help & privacy page entry point. Compare the existing menu behavior with the available submenu or modal patterns, then verify that the resources remain accessible and users can return to their previous context.
