Privacy Policy's

[Mike]

Hi there,

I am having real trouble stringing a privacy policy together, and wondered if anyone had any sources with help on how to do it?

Thanks,
Mike

At the moment there is an error when I try to create a new statement, but I get the gist of what it does - and really like the idea!

Thanks Chris

By the way, do you think it's a good idea having a privacy policy on my template website? Or is there not much point?

Thanks again,
Mike

TemplateMonster provides you with one I think.

[Mike]

They supply one called terms of use, is that the same thing and the thing you mean?

[Chris]

No, that wouldn't be the same thing.

Ok, I skimmed through the questions on that site and kind of made my own Privacy Policy by answering them.

I'm not that happy with it, but would like the opinion of some of the experts, so to speak...

"The following statement will inform you on how Template Storm collects information from it's users. If you feel that we have not covered everything, or have a general query on how and if we collect different types of information - then please contact us.

Template Storm values your privacy greatly, and that's why we will never distribute any information that we do collect, in any way.

Our website statistics program collects information such as your hostname and user agent, but, as said, this is never distributed to anybody. The statistics program also shows where our visitors come from - this can never be tracked down to any specific person, and just states what percentage of users come from each country.

Our partner sites may place cookies on the advertisements that are displayed on our website. Although the cookies do not collect any personal information, they may enable the partner site to relate to your usage of their site - if you click on their advertisement.

On some features of Template Storm (the "contact us" section for example), you are required to give personal information about yourself. In sections like that all information is voluntarily given by you, and is treated like all other data we collect - confidential. "

If you do not think it is suitable, I will actually use the premade one from the site Chris told me.

[Chris]

that looks fine to me.

[Mike]

Thanks
