🔒 Free Privacy Policy Generator

Create a GDPR & CCPA-compliant privacy policy for your website or app in minutes. No signup. No cost.

Why Your Website Needs a Privacy Policy

It is a legal requirement in almost every major jurisdiction to have a privacy policy if you collect personal data. "Personal data" includes names, emails, billing details, IP addresses, and even device identifiers collected by analytics tools.

  • GDPR (Europe): Requires detailed disclosures of data processing and clear statements of user rights.
  • CCPA & CPRA (California): Demands transparency regarding data collection, selling, and sharing practices.
  • CalOPPA (California): Requires any website compiling PII from California residents to prominently post a privacy policy.
  • Third-Party Requirements: Google Analytics, AdSense, Facebook Pixel, and all major App Stores require you to have a valid privacy policy to use their services.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. If you collect any personal information — including names, emails, IP addresses, or cookies via Google Analytics — you are legally required to have a privacy policy under laws like GDPR (EU), CCPA/CPRA (California), LGPD (Brazil), and PIPEDA (Canada). Third-party platforms like Google AdSense, the Apple App Store, and Stripe also require a published privacy policy.
Yes, 100% free — no hidden charges, no signup, no paywall. Generate unlimited privacy policies without creating an account. Your data never leaves your browser; everything is processed entirely client-side.
Our templates are built on real legal frameworks including GDPR, CCPA, CalOPPA, and LGPD. They cover the vast majority of use cases for small businesses, bloggers, SaaS apps, and e-commerce stores. However, we always recommend having an attorney review your final document if you handle highly sensitive data (health, financial, children's data).
Yes. Even a simple blog that uses Google Analytics, collects email subscribers, or displays ads collects personal data (IP addresses, cookies). Under GDPR, any processing of personal data from EU visitors requires a privacy policy — regardless of your website's size or traffic volume.
To satisfy GDPR Articles 13 and 14, your privacy policy must clearly disclose: who collects the data (your identity), what data is collected, why it is collected (legal basis), who it is shared with, how long it is retained, and a full list of data subject rights (access, deletion, portability, objection). Our generator covers all of these automatically.
The GDPR (EU) requires opt-in consent before most data processing and applies to any site with EU visitors. The CCPA/CPRA (California) gives consumers the right to know what data is collected and to opt-out of the sale of their data. CCPA applies to for-profit businesses that meet certain revenue or data volume thresholds. Our generator creates policies that cover both regulations.
No. Copying is copyright infringement, and more importantly, another site's policy was written for their specific data practices, third-party tools, and jurisdiction. Using it for your business provides no legal protection. Use a generator that customizes the document to your actual data collection practices.
Review your privacy policy at least once a year and update it whenever you: change data collection practices, add new third-party tools or analytics, expand to new geographic markets, or when major regulations change. Always display a visible "last updated" date.
While one privacy policy can cover both your website and app, it must address all data practices for both platforms — including mobile-specific data like location services, device identifiers, push notifications, and camera/microphone access. Both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store require a published privacy policy link.
Yes. Google Analytics, Google AdSense, Google Ads, and the Google Play Store all explicitly require websites and apps to have a published, accessible privacy policy. Failure to comply can result in account suspension or ad serving being disabled.

What the generator asks you

The form asks for your company name and address, website name and URL, contact email and country, then three yes/no questions: whether you sell personal data, whether the service is directed at children under 13, and whether you use Google Analytics. Your details are dropped into a fixed privacy policy template and the document is produced in your browser for you to copy or download. Note that the English policy text is currently the same whichever way you answer the three yes/no questions, so add those disclosures yourself if they apply.

What the finished document covers

  • Interpretation and Definitions
  • Collecting and Using Your Personal Data
  • Types of Data Collected: Personal Data and Usage Data
  • Contact Us section with your email

What it does not do

The country field is free text: it is printed into the policy but the wording is not adapted to the GDPR, CCPA or any other statute, so if you need jurisdiction-specific disclosures (lawful bases, retention periods, a data protection officer) you have to add them yourself. The template has no governing-law or severability clause. It is a starting template, not legal advice, and it does not know what your site actually does, so read every sentence against your real data practices before publishing it.

Documents you may need next

  • Cookie Policy Generator — If the site sets cookies or runs analytics, most EU visitors also expect a separate cookie policy.
  • Terms of Service Generator — The privacy policy says what you collect; the terms set the rules for using the service.
  • Shopify Privacy Policy Generator — Selling on Shopify, WooCommerce, Wix, Webflow or Squarespace? The platform versions name the processors those builders add.
