Website Privacy Policy Examples
Below, I’ve gathered some good privacy policy examples to help inspire you as you work on your legal agreement.
The New York Times Privacy Policy
Good privacy policies are simple to read and easy to find on a website or app, and the New York Times is a good sample.
Their policy is easy to find on their website and uses clear, straightforward language.
As shown in the screenshot below, they include a clause explaining guidelines for children, and express that, in compliance with COPPA, their services are not directed to minors.
They also provide an email address directly in the clause so parents or guardians can click on the link and easily request the deletion of any data accidentally gathered about a minor, which makes addressing privacy concerns much easier for the company and concerned guardian.
Apple’s Privacy Policy
Another good sample privacy policy to consider comes from Apple.
As shown in the screenshot below, Apple clearly explains what personal data it collects from users in an easy-to-read bullet list.
