“The explanations and information provided on this page are intended as general, high‑level guidance on creating your own Privacy Policy. This content should not be considered legal advice or specific recommendations, as we cannot determine the exact privacy practices you may choose to implement for your business, customers, or website visitors.

Privacy Policy - the basics

“A Privacy Policy is a statement that explains how a website collects, uses, discloses, processes, and manages the personal data of its visitors and customers. It typically also includes the website’s commitment to protecting user privacy, along with an overview of the measures and practices in place to safeguard personal information.

​

Because legal requirements vary across jurisdictions, the specific elements that must be included in a Privacy Policy may differ depending on your location and business activities. It is your responsibility to ensure that your Privacy Policy complies with the laws and regulations relevant to your operations.”

What to include in the Privacy Policy

“Generally speaking, a Privacy Policy often addresses several key areas: the types of information a website collects and how that information is gathered; the reasons the website collects such data; the website’s practices regarding sharing information with third parties; the ways visitors and customers can exercise their rights under applicable privacy laws; and any specific practices related to the collection of minors’ data, among other important details.
