Get Compliance ready for Global Privacy Laws like the GDPR, CCPA, and PIPEDA
Meeting the requirements of the GDPR, CCPA, PIPEDA, and Australia’s Privacy Act can be tough. You’ll need to lawyer up… or use GetTerms.
What do privacy laws do?
Privacy laws govern anyone collecting, storing and using personal information, including governments, companies, and individuals. They give people control over who accesses their personal data, and a way to take action if their data is misused.
Privacy laws also keep companies accountable with significant fines for the misuse, or collection of personal data without consent.
What is personal information?
Personal information is any information that identifies a person, like their name, email address, IP address, or geolocation data. If your website or app has analytics software installed, or uses a contact form, you collect personal information.
Why should you care about privacy laws?
Privacy laws are integral to modern society. As a business, they may seem overly complicated. As an individual, you might think “I don’t care who has my personal data”. But, if you’ve ever been the victim of a data breach or identity theft, you might feel differently.
Privacy is a human right. Data privacy laws protect that right.
What countries require a privacy policy?
If you collect data from citizens of any of the below countries, you’re legally obligated to have a privacy policy.
- Australia
- Brazil
- Canada
- China
- France
- Germany
- Greece
- Hong Kong
- India
- Ireland
- Japan
- Malaysia
- Mexico
- New Zealand
- Philippines
- Russia
- Singapore
- South Africa
- Sweden
- Switzerland
- Taiwan
- Thailand
- United Kingdom
- United States
Privacy laws only protect citizens of their own jurisdiction, this makes operating nationally fairly simple from a compliance perspective. Things only get complicated when your business grows internationally. For more information, we recommend reading our guide on privacy laws by country.

FAQs
What exactly is a privacy policy
A privacy policy is a legal document that provides transparency around how an organization handles any personal information they collect. It explains what personal data the organization collects, how they collect it, where they store it, and whether they share the data they collect with third parties or keep it confidential.In addition to explaining how any personal data is handled, a privacy policy also outlines the rights of anyone who’s data is collected by them and instructs them on how they can access their data, correct it, or complain if they believe it's being misused.
Do I need a privacy policy statement?
If you collect personal information, then yes, you need a privacy policy.Unlike a terms and conditions statement, a privacy policy is legally required in many countries, including Australia, the USA, and all EU nations.
You'll also find that many third-party APIs and services require you have a privacy policy. Some services that require a privacy policy are Meta ads and Instagram ads, Google Ad Sense, and the two major commercial app marketplaces: Google Play or the App Store.
Can I just copy somebody else’s privacy policy?
We don't recommend copying someone else's privacy policy.Firstly, it violates the intellectual property of the company you’ve copied from and may result in legal action.
Secondly, and more importantly, using a policy that doesn't fit your business puts your company at risk.
Finally, this DIY approach would probably take you longer than generating your privacy policy with a service like GetTerms.
Where do I put my privacy policy?
Most online businesses publish a new page specifically for their Privacy Policy, we recommend you do the same. We also recommend linking to the page from the footer as this is where most people expect to find it.Legally speaking, where you present your privacy policy isn't incredibly important, as long as it's easily accessible. You only need to tick a few boxes to stay on the right side of the law.
- Your privacy policy must be free.
- Your privacy policy must be delivered in a timely manner.

What should my privacy policy include?
The exact contents of your privacy policy depends on where your users are located. For example, you may need to address requirements of other legal jurisdictions if your users are from multiple countries.Here are some of the details that most countries require you to include in your privacy policy:
- What a privacy policy is
- Who you are and your contact information
- Why you collect personal data and your legal reasons for doing so
- How using users' information benefits you or others
- Who you might share personal information with
- If you send users' information overseas
- how you protect user data
- How long you keep users' information (data retention)
- Users' rights regarding their information
- Users' right to change their mind about you using their information
- How users can complain if they're unhappy with how you handle their information
- Whether users have to give you their information and what happens if they don't
- If you use technology to make decisions about users automatically, and what this means for them
Please not that these are just guidelines and don't account for all possible clauses. If you want to ensure your privacy policy is compliance ready for global privacy laws, use our privacy policy generator or consult a lawyer.
Can I use A.I. like ChatGPT to generate a privacy policy?
While you can use ChatGPT to write your privacy policy, we absolutely cannot recommend that you do so. Here are some reasons why:- A.I. hallucinates a lot, and personally we don't think anyone should be hallucinating while they write legal documents.
- ChatGPT and similar large language models are essentially fancy text prediction systems. They predict the next word in a sequence by looking at the words that came before. This might include some nice grammar and lawyer talk, but a privacy policy is not just about well-written sentences. Compliance with laws like the GDPR in Europe, or the CCPA in California, requires understanding, something A.I. doesn't have.
- Your privacy policy needs to apply to real situations in your company. ChatGPT lacks specific knowledge about your business operations and doesn't have expertise in privacy legislation. So, while AI can help create a basic structure for a privacy policy, you'll still need a lawyer review it.
At the end of the day, if you don't have the expertise to review your legal documents, don't use A.I. to create them. Instead, use a trusted Privacy Policy Generator like ours. With GetTerms, you can trust that a lawyer has reviewed your policy to ensure it is legally compliant and protects you.
Is it okay to use a privacy policy generator?
Yes, a privacy policy generator is perfectly acceptable. Millions of businesses use them to create their policies each year.While hiring a lawyer is always going to be the best way to create a privacy policy, it's also expensive, and in most cases, complete overkill.
A compliant privacy policy's main goal is to be transparent about how your business handles personal information. It should cover all aspects relevant to your operations and meet the requirements of applicable global privacy laws. A trustworthy privacy policy generator like GetTerms is perfectly capable of this. By asking carefully constructed questions about your business it tailors your policy to perfectly fit your operations.
GetTerms will even keep your policy up-to-date with changing privacy laws. This means you won't need to pay for extra legal advice every time the rules change. We frequently update our templates to reflect new legal requirements, helping our customers stay compliant without any extra costs.
How often is the GetTerms privacy policy generator updated?
We update our privacy policy generator several times a year to keep it up to date with global privacy laws.Gregor McElvogue
