[This is a starter template. Have it reviewed by a solicitor or attorney before you publish.]This is a starting template, not legal advice, and not a guarantee of compliance with UK GDPR, CCPA or any US state law. It cannot know which laws apply to you. Read every line, edit it to match how your business really works, and if you handle sensitive, children's, health or financial data, or you sell data, have a solicitor or attorney review it before you publish.

This tool produces a starter template to work from. It is not legal advice, not a substitute for a solicitor or attorney, and not a guarantee of compliance with UK GDPR, the California CCPA/CPRA, or any other US state privacy law. As of 2026 around twenty US states have their own comprehensive privacy laws already in force, with more enacted and coming, and each sets different rules on thresholds, sensitive data, opt-outs and penalties. Those laws also change. This generator cannot know which apply to you or cover them all. If you handle sensitive data, children's data, health or financial information, or you sell or share personal data, have a qualified solicitor or attorney review your policy before you publish. Treat the output as a first draft that a human still needs to check.
If your site collects any personal data, a contact form, an email signup, analytics or cookies, most people expect a privacy policy, and many laws require one. It tells visitors what you gather, why, who you share it with, and how they reach you. Payment processors, ad networks and app stores also ask to see one before they will work with you. A clear policy is a basic trust signal, not a legal nicety.
You answer questions in plain language: your business name, what data you collect, which tools you use, whether you sell data, and how visitors can contact you. The tool slots your answers into a structured draft covering the sections people expect to see. You get an editable document, not a locked PDF. Read every line, change anything that does not match how your business really works, then publish it on your own site.
Most sites set cookies without the owner realising, through analytics, embedded video, live chat or ad pixels. This generator includes a cookie section that lists the common categories, essential, analytics, and marketing, so you can describe what your site uses. It does not scan your site or detect cookies for you. You tell it what you have, and it writes the section. If you are unsure what your site sets, a browser cookie inspector will show you.
A privacy policy is not write-once. Every time you add a tool, a new form, a chat widget or a different analytics provider, the data you handle changes, and your policy should follow. Generate a fresh draft whenever something material shifts, and date it so visitors can see when it last changed. An out-of-date policy that describes tools you no longer use can be worse than none at all.
