Privacy Policy: basics
That said, a Privacy Policy is a statement that discloses some or all of a website's user and customer data collection, use, disclosure, process and management practices. 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 that the website applies to protect privacy.
Different jurisdictions have different legal obligations on what must be included in a Privacy Policy. You are responsible for ensuring that you comply with laws relevant to your activities and location.
