How it works
Enter your app or website name, describe what data you collect from users, and provide a contact email for privacy requests. The more accurately you describe your data practices, the more accurate and useful the generated policy.
Select your primary compliance jurisdiction. GDPR applies to businesses serving EU residents; CCPA applies if you serve California residents. If you are unsure, "General / Global" produces a broadly compliant baseline.
You get a complete, structured privacy policy covering data collection, use, storage, user rights, cookies, and contact information — in plain English that users can actually understand.
Practical example
For example, a SaaS analytics tool that collects email addresses, usage data, and payment information might get a policy that clearly separates data collected directly from users (account data), data collected automatically (analytics, logs), and data shared with third parties (payment processor, email service) — each with a clear statement of purpose and retention period.
The policy avoids legal boilerplate wherever possible, using plain language that both satisfies compliance requirements and builds user trust — because a policy that users can actually read is more trustworthy than one full of impenetrable legalese.
Frequently asked questions
Is a generated privacy policy legally binding?
A generated privacy policy is a starting point, not a legal opinion. For most small websites and apps, a well-structured, accurate privacy policy covers the practical requirements. However, if you handle sensitive data categories (health, financial, children's data), operate in regulated industries, or have significant user volumes, have a qualified lawyer review it. The cost of a legal review is modest compared to the risk of a GDPR enforcement action.
Do I need a privacy policy even if I do not sell data?
Yes. If your website collects any personal data — even just an email address for a contact form, or IP addresses in server logs — you are required to inform users about that collection under GDPR, CCPA, and most other modern privacy frameworks. "Selling data" is not the threshold; "collecting data" is.
How often should I update my privacy policy?
Whenever your data practices change. Adding a new analytics tool, integrating a new payment processor, launching a new feature that collects different data — all of these require a policy update. Many businesses update their policy annually, but a policy that does not reflect your actual current data practices is both inaccurate and potentially non-compliant. Notify users of material changes.
Where should I link to my privacy policy?
At minimum: in the footer of every page, in any sign-up or contact form, in your app's settings or profile section, and in any email marketing. If you use cookies or analytics, the privacy policy should also be linked from your cookie consent banner. The more prominently and consistently you link to it, the more trust signals you send to users — and the more clearly you can demonstrate notice and consent for compliance purposes.
