Privacy Policy Generator

Essential sections: what data you collect, how you use it, legal basis for processing, third-party sharing, data retention periods, user rights (access, deletion, portability), cookie usage, children's privacy, contact information, and policy update procedures.

Yes, if you collect any personal data (including via analytics, contact forms, or cookies). Required by: GDPR (EU), CCPA (California), PIPEDA (Canada), and most app stores. Even a simple blog with Google Analytics needs one. The generator creates compliant policies.

Include: data controller identity, purposes and legal basis for processing, data categories collected, recipients of data, international transfers, retention periods, data subject rights, right to complain to supervisory authority, and automated decision-making disclosures.

Review annually at minimum. Update whenever you: add new data collection, change data processors, expand to new regions, add new features, or change data retention practices. Notify users of material changes. The generator tracks common update triggers.

Privacy policy: explains how you handle personal data (legally required). Terms of service: rules for using your website/app (contractual agreement). Both are important but serve different purposes. The generator creates both documents separately.
