Policy Privacy And Terms

Required by law

A "Privacy Policy" agreement is required by law if you're collecting personal data from users, regardless of the platform used (website, mobile app, desktop app etc.)

Personal data is any kind of data that can identify an individual: email address, first and last name, billing and shipping address, credit card information, and so on.

Use this agreement everywhere:

Web sites
WordPress blogs (or any other platforms: Joomla, Drupal)
E-commerce stores
Mobile apps: iOS, Android or Windows Phone
Facebook apps
Desktop apps
SaaS app
Digital products or digital services

For ecommerce stores

Including a Privacy Policy agreement for your ecommerce store is not only required by law, but it also builds trust with your customers and ensures that you stay in line with your legal obligations.

If you already have this agreement for your store, make sure to follow these tips:

Disclose what kind of personal information you're collecting from your customers
Disclose how the collected information may be shared or disclosed with third parties your store might be using (Google Analytics, Google AdWords etc.)
Inform how customers can review and change the information collected on them
Make sure to include the policy's effective date
If you don't have the agreeement yet, use the Generator to create it.


For iOS, Android or Windows Phone

You'll need the Privacy Policy agreement even if you don't collect any personal data yourself through the mobile app you're building, but instead use third party tools such as:

Google Analytics Mobile
Flurry
Firebase
Mixpanel
And so on
If you use at least one third party tool that might collect personal data through your mobile app, you need this agreement in place.

Each app store also requires you to have this agreement in place before submitting the mobile app. Read more about their specific requirements:

For SaaS businesses

Most SaaS businesses need to collect at least 2 types of personal information from users: email address and payment information. This makes a Privacy Policy agreement mandatory for SaaS businesses.
