Privacy Policy Generator

Spin up a basic privacy policy for any small site.

Why does every website need a privacy policy?

If your site collects any data at all, even just analytics or contact form submissions, most countries require a clear public policy that explains what you collect and why. Google AdSense, Facebook ads, and most app stores also require one before they let you use their services. A simple policy keeps you out of legal trouble and builds basic visitor trust.

How does this generator work?

  1. Fill in your site name, URL, and contact email.
  2. Tick the features your site uses, like cookies, analytics, ads, or newsletter.
  3. Click Generate.
  4. Copy the policy or download the text file, paste into a privacy-policy page on your site, and link it from the footer.

Is this output legally binding?

This is a starter template, not legal advice. It covers the basics most small sites need, but if you handle health data, payments, or operate in heavily regulated industries, talk to a lawyer. For a personal blog or small portfolio site this template is usually enough.

What should you customize after generating?

Update the company or owner name, the country governing law, and any specific tools you use. If you target European users, add a section about GDPR rights and a clear cookie consent banner. For California visitors, mention CCPA rights for residents.

Got more questions?

Do I need a separate cookie banner?
Yes if you target users in the EU, UK, or California. The privacy policy alone does not satisfy consent requirements there. Pair it with a cookie consent banner.
How often should I update the policy?
Update it whenever you add a new tracking tool, change your contact email, or expand to new regions. Always update the date at the top so users see the change.
Where should the policy link be placed?
In your site footer, in your contact form area, and at the bottom of newsletter signup boxes. Make it easy to find without hunting through menus.
Can I use this for an ecommerce store?
You can start here, but ecommerce stores also need a refund policy, terms of service, and a clearer disclosure for payment processing partners. Use this as a starting draft.
