What is a privacy policy and why do I need one?βΎ
A privacy policy is a legal document that tells visitors how your website collects, uses, stores, and protects their personal data. It's required by law in most countries if you collect any personal information, including email addresses, cookies, or analytics data. Google, Apple App Store, and payment processors require one before you can operate.
Is the generated privacy policy legally valid?βΎ
The generator creates a comprehensive template based on common legal requirements including GDPR, CCPA, and COPPA, covering data collection, cookies, user rights, third-party services, data retention, and security. However, we recommend having a lawyer review it to ensure full compliance with your specific jurisdiction and business type.
Does it cover GDPR, CCPA, and COPPA requirements?βΎ
Yes. Select the compliance frameworks that apply to you. GDPR adds EU data subject rights (access, rectification, erasure, portability, objection). CCPA adds California consumer rights (right to know, delete, opt-out). COPPA adds children's privacy protections. Each section uses legally correct language for your chosen frameworks.
Can I download the privacy policy as HTML?βΎ
Yes. The generator offers two output formats: plain text for easy copying and HTML as a complete, styled page ready to publish. Both can be copied to clipboard or downloaded as a file with one click.
What third-party services are supported?βΎ
The generator includes sections for 14 popular services: Google Analytics, Google Ads, Facebook Pixel, Stripe, PayPal, Mailchimp, SendGrid, Cloudflare, AWS, Firebase, Intercom, Hotjar, Sentry, and HubSpot. Select the ones you use and the policy will include appropriate disclosure language for each.
How often should I update my privacy policy?βΎ
Review your privacy policy whenever you change how you collect, use, or share data. This includes adding new analytics, integrating payment processors, launching newsletters, or expanding to new markets. At minimum, review annually to ensure it reflects your current practices.
Is this privacy policy generator really free?βΎ
Yes, 100% free with no signup, no account, and no watermarks. Generate unlimited policies and use them however you want, with no attribution required. Copy as text or download as HTML.
