 The OECD Privacy Policy Statement Generator is freely available. If you run a website which collects any kind of information from visitors then consult the OECD to consider how you are dealing with personal data. |
|
|
The generator provides guidance on conducting an internal review of existing personal data practices and on developing a privacy policy statement. It gives links to private sector organisations with expertise in developing a privacy policy. It offers links to governmental agencies, non-governmental organisations and private bodies that give information on applicable regulations. Homeworking.com always had a clear idea of not collecting unnecessary data, and not mis-using data but has now developed its own Privacy Policy using the OECD generator.
