Legal notice

Privacy Policy: Fundamentals

That said, a Privacy Policy is a statement that discloses some or all of a website's practices regarding the collection, use, disclosure, processing, and management of user and customer data. It also typically includes a statement about the website's commitment to protecting the privacy of its visitors or customers, and an explanation of the different mechanisms the website implements to protect privacy.

Different jurisdictions have different legal obligations regarding what must be included in a Privacy Policy. You are responsible for ensuring that you comply with the laws applicable to your activities and location.

What should be included in the Privacy Policy document

Generally speaking, a Privacy Policy will typically address these types of issues: the types of information the website collects and how it collects the data, an explanation of why the website collects this type of information, what the website's practices are for sharing information with third parties, ways for your visitors and customers to exercise their rights under applicable privacy laws, specific practices related to the collection of data from children, and much more.
