Privacy Policy Generator FAQ

Is the privacy policy generator free?

Yes, Termly’s privacy policy generator is free for generating privacy policies for websites, apps, Facebook, and more.

No credit card is required to create, publish, and post one free privacy policy once it’s been generated.

Is a privacy policy required by law?

Yes, privacy policies are required by most data privacy laws, including the California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA), the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and the California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA).

Each law impacts the contents of a privacy policy in different ways.

But most require your policy to include information about what data your business collects, what you do with that data, whether it’s shared or sold to third parties, and the rights users have over that data and how they can exercise them.

Should I use AI like ChatGPT to create a legally sound Privacy Policy?

No, you should not use an AI or LLM like ChatGPT to make your privacy policy (or any other legal policy). This is very risky and could expose you to legal issues, and it would take up more of your time and effort than using a generator.

Privacy policies require extremely specific details about your business and how it collects, processes, and uses personal information from visitors.

To get an AI to create a comprehensive policy, you would need to create an extraordinarily complex, specific prompt and spend lots of time reviewing every detail it outputs to ensure it doesn’t hallucinate, provide false information, or misrepresent your business.

It is easier and more reliable to use tools like Termly’s Privacy Policy Generator instead, which were intentionally created by legal teams and data privacy experts to directly address specific data privacy laws and the various business requirements.

Can I copy someone else’s privacy policy?

No, you can’t copy someone else’s privacy policy. Doing so will put your business or website at legal risk. Privacy policies are protected by copyright, so copying someone else’s policy is a legal violation. More importantly, your privacy policy needs to be tailored to your website to comply with data privacy laws and provide users with accurate information.

How fast is the privacy policy generator?

You can make a privacy policy using Termly in just minutes. Just spend a few minutes answering some questions about your business, and our generator will generate your privacy policy instantly.

How often is the privacy policy generator updated?

We regularly update our privacy policy generator and keep it up to date as new laws are passed.

What is a privacy policy?

A privacy policy — also referred to as a privacy notice — is a legal document that explains how a company or website collects, uses, and shares personal information.

The most important thing a privacy policy does is inform your users how you collect, use, and manage their personal data.

Why is a privacy policy important to have?

Privacy policies not only satisfy legal requirements, but they also signal to your users that you respect them enough to disclose how you collect, manage, and use their data.

Not having a privacy policy can make you seem untrustworthy.

However, you only need a privacy policy if you actually collect or process data through the use of cookies, analytics software, forms, etc.

What goes in a privacy policy?

The contents of privacy policies vary depending on which laws apply, but here’s a broad list of common clauses and details a privacy policy includes:

  • An introduction paragraph and table of contents
  • What personal data you collect
  • Why you collect the data
  • How the data is collected
  • If the data is shared or sold to any third parties
  • What rights users have over their data
  • How they can act on those rights
  • Your use of cookies and other trackers
  • If you handle children’s data
  • If you collect sensitive personal information
  • Your data retention period
  • Information about international data transfers, if applicable
  • Contact info for your Data Protection Officer, if applicable
  • Company contact details

You’ll need to keep the following questions in mind when creating your policy:

  • What types of data do you collect? Email addresses, contact information, and payment information are commonly collected. Be sure to evaluate all the data you collect, whether for marketing, newsletters, order information, or more.
  • Why do you collect the data? Are you collecting any data you don’t need? Describing the purpose for data collection is a critical part of your privacy policy.
  • Where and how do you store collected data? Some data privacy laws limit how long you can keep personal information. You’ll also want to consider the security of your data storage.

Our generator walks you through the steps and ensures you don’t forget anything when creating a privacy policy.

Where should I put my privacy policy?

Put your privacy policy in easy-to-find areas on your website. Some common places to put a privacy policy include:

  • Website footer
  • Main menu
  • Checkout page
  • Sign-up page
  • Within other legal policies

You should put your policy in multiple of the above locations. Linking your privacy policy on your site ensures users can find it and that you remain compliant with privacy laws.

Personal Data

Personal data is any information that can be used to identify an individual. It includes names, email addresses, phone numbers, addresses, geolocation, IP addresses, cookie data, and much more.

When creating an online privacy policy, you must list all personal data your website or app collects from users.
