A privacy policy details your company’s views and procedures related to the collection of information on people who use your system. It's important to let your users know how you are going to use the information you are requesting, and to tell users who to contact should they have questions. In some jurisdictions , such as California, you are required to post your privacy policy by law. In the EU, the [[General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)]] and the e-privacy directive oblige you to put display a privacy notice containing specific elements on your system. Failure to do so can result in fines.

You can create a '''privacy policy''' for your system by going to the '''Menu''' Icon > '''Global Settings''' > '''Security''' Tab > '''Privacy and Security Policies''' link. We suggest you start by creating a policy for the '''Default Country''' and '''Languages''' of your choice. The default country is displayed until the user has logged in, at which point the system shows you the policy for the country you have chosen as your primary residence. We also suggest you '''Enforce User Acceptance''' by picking by selecting a date on your privacy policy. Once you have a privacy policy created, go to the desired user signup page and select the desired policy from the '''Attach Policies''' dropdown. Then, '''Save''' your signup page. Now, when anyone is sent to your signup page, they will first be required to read and accept your privacy policy before they can register and gain access to your system.
