Hey everyone!

A quick tutorial coming your way on a crucial aspect of your website – setting up a privacy policy page. With the ever-evolving privacy laws worldwide, like the EU's GDPR and various US regulations, having a clear and compliant privacy policy isn't just good practice; it's a requirement.

Whether you're just starting out or updating an existing site, I'll guide you through creating a standardized privacy policy page that meets these legal standards.

In this video, you'll learn:

  1. The Importance of a Privacy Policy: Why every website needs a compliant privacy policy page and how it affects your audience's trust and your site's legality.
  2. Accessing the Privacy Policy Template: I'll walk you through finding the privacy policy writing task within your Wealthy Affiliate Hub, showcasing the ease of starting with a template.
  3. Customizing Your Policy: Step-by-step instructions on updating the template with your website's URL, your contact information, and ensuring it reflects the specific ways you handle visitor data.
  4. Publishing Your Policy: Tips on how to correctly publish your privacy policy as a page (not a post) to ensure it's easily accessible but not part of your blog roll.
  5. Updating and Maintenance: How to keep your privacy policy current with your website's growth and changes in data handling practices.

Hey Kyle,

Does this create a new privacy policy template and do we need to update ours if it was created under the old training?

You don't need to update your existing one, this is a pretty standard privacy policy template and the same one that is within ALL hubs. It is current, and it is does the job.
