Privacy Policy Pages

[MaryNix]

When creating a privacy policy page- much of what needs to be added is legal information.  This means privacy policy pages may be very similar to others' privacy pages in my niche.

Are they all pretty much generic?   We have a few different companies and I'm thinking we can have one created and then modify them per company?

Is this correct?

It depends.

If you are in Europe (or serve a European market), then you need to comply with GDPR rules. You'll need to specify how you use cookies, and how users can remove their data.

If there are nuances with how you use site data, then you'll need to speak to that as well.

Basically, if you collect data in any way from a website visitor then you need to disclose and help someone understand in lay mans terms what you're doing with it. If a generic/boilerplate privacy policy fits the need, then go with that. If you have custom applications, then have a lawyer review it for accuracy.
