Description
If you have a website & collect people’s info on it, you need a Privacy Policy. Here’s the skinny…
WHAT IS A PRIVACY POLICY?
Basically, a privacy policy tells your website’s visitors when & what type of personal info (i.e., name, email address, email sign up, etc.) you collect from them, how you use it, and what they can do to change it. It also describes what you’ll do to keep their info private. If you have an email sign-up form, contact page, or take people’s info anywhere else on your site, you’re required to have one.
DO I NEED IT?
In the U.S., you’re legally required to have a privacy policy on your website if you…
- Collect email addresses and/or names for your email list
- Have a contact page on your site
- Send out emails to your list
- Use cookies, Google ads/analytics, tracking, or anything else to study who’s viewing your site
- Run surveys, contests, giveaways or anything else that collects ANY personal info from people (name, email address, address, phone number, etc.)
- Send emails to anyone located within the EU, thanks to the GDPR
