Privacy policy, Disclaimers and Term of services are pages that’s better to have it on your blog. Most of us “Beginners” not pay attention for this element when start a new blog.
And why it’s really important?
For the short explanation it because is required by law (GDPR). Beside that it will make people not only respect your site, also it will show how credible is your blog and how credible and professional are you as a blogger.
If you wanted to become a blogger and plan to build or already have a new one, you should consider to have it on your new blog. In this post I try to inform you how easily exactly to create pages for privacy policy, Disclaimers and Term of services.
But before we do that, it’s better to know “a little” about the use of these pages one by one right?
Privacy policy
In online world we deal not only with people we know personally that come to visit our site. Privacy policy page are the place to show how we respect them while they’re browsing and use our blog/website.
Its explain how we :
- Collect their personal information
- For using web browser cookies
- How we protect their personal information
- To confirm third party websites link on our site (Advertising, sponsor etc)
- Protect privacy of the young who are under 13
- To explain and declare that when people use our site they have accept our terms
To create it simply you can use the Privacy policy generator. My recommended is one I’ve use for this blog, you can create your page here: PrivacyPolicies.com
Note! You have to sign up to create your page. You can create for free for personal and individual use, for business purpose you may need to pay the submission.
Disclaimers
There is two type of disclaimer for blog I know: general ‘disclaimer’ and affiliate ‘disclosure.’ If you are work as an affiliate it a must have page on your blog.
General Disclaimer
A disclaimer is you can say any statement to specify the scope of rights and obligations. By having Disclaimers page on your blog the visitor will understand and agree for using any contained information on your website.
You can create the general Disclaimer for free here: Disclaimer Generator
Affiliates Disclosure
This is very important for blogging! Especially if you are endorsed by product or services and you receiving payment or commission by advertiser by creating content or put some ads banner on your blog.
To create for free your Disclosure simply go here: DisclosurePolicy.org
Term of services
Term of services also known as ‘Term of use’ sometime just ‘Terms.’ some website abbreviate it as ‘TOS’
Even TOS also can be merely your disclaimer but it’s better to have it separately. Is important to let your visitor know terms of using your website that they are agree for example things like;
- They at least 13 years old age to use information of your site
- To declare your responsibility or not responsible with third party links of other website or sponsor that you refer to your visitor.
- Explain for prohibited used
