Free Privacy Policy Generator: Create a GDPR-Compliant Policy in Minutes

If your website collects any personal data — email addresses, analytics, cookies — you legally need a privacy policy. Under the UK GDPR and EU GDPR, failing to have one can result in significant fines. The good news: you do not need a lawyer to get started. Our free Privacy Policy Generator creates a GDPR-compliant policy in under a minute.

Why every website needs a privacy policy

You might think your simple blog or portfolio site does not collect data. But consider: if you use Google Analytics, you are collecting data. If you have a contact form, you are collecting data. If you use cookies — including essential ones — you are collecting data. Under UK GDPR and EU GDPR, you must inform users about this.

Specifically, you must disclose: what data you collect, why you collect it, how long you keep it, who you share it with, and what rights users have. A privacy policy is the standard way to do this.

What our generator covers

Our Privacy Policy Generator creates a policy that covers:

• Data collection — what information you gather and why
• Legal basis for processing — legitimate interests, consent, and contract
• Cookie usage — if your site uses cookies beyond strictly necessary ones
• Analytics — if you use tools like Google Analytics or Plausible
• Third-party advertising — if you monetise with display ads
• User rights — access, rectification, erasure, portability, and the right to complain to the ICO
• Data retention periods — how long you hold data
• Contact information — where users can reach you with data requests

What about Terms of Service?

A privacy policy tells users how you handle their data. Terms of Service (ToS) is a separate document that governs the relationship between you and your users — acceptable use, liability, intellectual property, and so on. If you need both, we also have a free Terms of Service Generator.

How to use the generator

1. Visit the Privacy Policy Generator
2. Enter your company name, website URL, and contact email
3. Select your jurisdiction (UK, EU, US, or Other)
4. Check the boxes that apply to your site (analytics, cookies, ads, user data)
5. Click Generate — your policy appears instantly
6. Copy and paste it into a dedicated Privacy Policy page on your site

The generated policy is a solid starting point. For complex situations — user accounts, payment processing, multiple jurisdictions — I recommend having a lawyer review it. But for most websites and blogs, the generated policy covers what you need.
