User Story or Problem Statement
As a user who might choose to expand more than one Additional Information component, I would like the links to have unique text so I can tell what app each link is referring to.
Details
We have three links under each app's additional information pane that have the same text but unique URLs:
View the privacy policy
View terms of service
Report this app to VA
It would help us strive for WCAG2 AAA (beyond compliance) if these links had the app's name, so users could distinguish them without additional context like headings.
Acceptance Criteria
[ ] Axe "Links with the same name have a similar purpose" best practice warning no longer appears in future scans
[ ] No new axe browser violations
