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 display a privacy notice containing specific elements on your system. Failure to do so can result in fines.
