Privacy Policy: Basics

A privacy policy is a statement that discloses some or all of the practices of collecting, using, disclosing, processing, and managing user and customer data on a website. It also usually 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 applies to safeguard privacy. Different jurisdictions have different legal obligations about what should be included in a privacy policy. You are responsible for ensuring that you comply with the relevant legislation for your activities and location.
