Please Don’t Copy and Paste: Getting Privacy Policies Right
Whether your company has 5 employees or 500, if you operate online, you’re collecting user data—and that means you must have a privacy policy. But having a privacy policy isn’t just a legal requirement; it’s a powerful statement of your company’s ethics and values. Done right, it reflects a genuine commitment to transparency, accountability, and user trust. Unfortunately, too many businesses treat it as just another box to check.
