How the privacy policy generator works
- Start from a template or a description. Pick the privacy policy template, or describe your product in a sentence and get a first draft.
- Make it match what you actually do. Edit the sections in the editor: the data you collect, the tools you use, who you share data with and how long you keep it.
- Publish and share the link. Your policy gets a permanent public URL. Paste it into your website footer, App Store Connect, the Google Play Console or anywhere else that asks for it.
What your privacy policy will include
- Who you are and how to contact you about privacy
- The personal information you collect, directly and automatically
- How and why you use it, and the legal bases for users in Europe
- Who you share it with, such as hosting, analytics and payment providers
- Cookies and tracking technologies
- How long you keep data and how you protect it
- International data transfers
- Users' rights and how to exercise them
- Children's privacy and how you handle changes to the policy
US privacy laws to consider
The US has no single federal privacy law for most businesses, but several state laws apply to companies that serve their residents, wherever the company is based.
CalOPPA
The California Online Privacy Protection Act requires any commercial website or online service that collects personally identifiable information from California residents to post a privacy policy conspicuously. It must describe the categories of information collected, the third parties it is shared with, how users can review changes, the effective date, and how the site responds to "Do Not Track" signals.
CCPA and CPRA
The California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the CPRA, applies to for-profit businesses that meet one of its thresholds, based on annual revenue, the number of California consumers whose data they handle, or revenue from selling or sharing personal information. Covered businesses must explain the categories of personal information they collect and why, disclose any selling or sharing, describe consumers' rights to know, delete, correct and opt out, and update the privacy policy at least once every 12 months.
Other state privacy laws
A growing number of states, including Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah and Texas, have comprehensive privacy laws with similar disclosure requirements and their own thresholds. If you serve customers across the US, write your policy so it covers these rights in general terms.
Children's privacy
If your website or app is directed at children under 13, or you knowingly collect their data, COPPA requires verifiable parental consent and a specific children's privacy notice.
Free hosting on a permanent link
A privacy policy only helps if people, and app reviewers, can open it. Legiflare hosts your policy on a clean, public URL that loads quickly on any phone. When your practices change, you edit the text and the link stays the same, so you never have to update your app store listings or website footer. There's no domain to buy and no hosting to maintain.
Privacy policy guides by platform
Each platform has its own rules about where the link goes and what the policy must say:
Frequently asked questions
Is the privacy policy generator really free?
Yes. Creating, editing and hosting your privacy policy on Legiflare is free, with no credit card required.
Will the policy be GDPR and CCPA compliant?
The template includes the sections these laws ask for. Compliance depends on your actual practices, so review every section and make sure it describes what your product really does.
Can I use the policy for my app and my website?
Yes. One hosted policy can cover your website, your iOS app and your Android app, as long as it describes all of them.
Can I edit the policy after publishing it?
Yes, at any time. The public URL doesn't change when you edit, so every place that links to it shows the latest version.
Can I keep a policy private while I work on it?
Yes. Uncheck "Public" when you save, and the link won't be accessible until you make it public.
