Privacy policy generator for your website, with an AI chat clause
Tell the generator who you are, what data your website collects and which services you use. It drafts a plain-language privacy policy that follows the data-protection notes for your country, adds a clause for your website chat, and writes a short FAQ your chatbot can answer from.
This is a draft, not legal advice: check it against the data-protection law where you and your visitors are before you publish it. Written by AI. Read it before you send it.
Build a support agent from your site
Your own AI agent answers questions like this on your website, day and night, from your own pages and documents, and passes the hard ones to you. Paste your address to see it learn your site. No account needed.
What a privacy policy for a website must say
A privacy policy tells visitors who you are, what personal data your website collects, why, on what legal basis where the law asks for one, who you share it with, how long you keep it, and how people can see, correct or delete their data. If a chatbot reads visitor messages, say so too. Laws differ by country and some apply only above a size threshold. This is general information, not legal advice.
- Describe your businessEnter your business name, your website and the country you operate from. The draft follows that country's data-protection notes.
- List the data and the servicesWrite what your site collects (contact forms, orders, newsletter sign-ups) and the services that touch it: analytics, payments, email, hosting, chat.
- Say whether you have a website chatChoose Yes if visitors can chat on your site. The draft adds a section on what the chat collects and that an AI model writes the answers.
- Review, then publishFill every [square-bracket] slot, check the draft against the country notes below, link the policy in your footer and next to every form, and paste the FAQ into your chatbot.
Here is the shape of a short privacy policy template for a small US website. Each heading answers one question a visitor or a regulator asks. Keep the order; replace the slots with what is true for you.
Privacy Policy for [business name] Who we are [Business name] runs [website]. Questions about this policy: [privacy contact]. What we collect - [list the data you collect, e.g. name and email from the contact form] How we use it - [each purpose, e.g. to answer your message, to deliver your order] Who we share it with - [each service by name, and what it does for you] How long we keep it [retention period, or how you decide it] Your choices and rights Contact [privacy contact] to ask what we hold about you, or to correct or delete it. Changes to this policy We will post any change on this page and update the date below. Last updated: [date]
Link the policy from every page footer and next to each form that collects personal data.

The AI chat clause: what to tell visitors about your website chat
A chat box collects personal data the moment a visitor types a name, an email or an order number. If an AI model writes the answers, your policy should say so in plain words.
- What the chat collects: the messages, any contact details the visitor gives, and the page they chatted from.
- What it is for: answering questions, and passing the conversation to a person when needed.
- That an AI model writes the answers from your own website and documents, and can make mistakes.
- That people on your team may read the conversation.
- Which company runs the chat for you, named with your other service providers.
- How long you keep chats, and how a visitor asks you to delete one.
- A line asking visitors not to type passwords, card numbers or health details into the chat.
Website chat When you use the chat on our website, we collect your messages, any details you choose to share (such as your name or email) and the page you were on. We use them to answer your question and, if needed, to pass your conversation to a member of our team. Answers in the chat are written by an AI model using information from our website and documents. They can be wrong; for anything important, ask to speak to a person. Our team may read chat conversations to help you and to improve our answers. The chat is provided by [chat provider], which processes your messages on our behalf. We keep chat conversations for [how long you keep chats]. To ask us to delete a conversation, contact [privacy contact]. Please do not share passwords, card numbers or health information in the chat.
Choose Yes for "Website chat" in the tool and this section is written for you.
Set the retention period to one you actually keep. If your chat tool cannot delete a single conversation on request, say how you handle the request instead of promising deletion.
Common mistakes in privacy policies
- Copying another site's policy. It lists their services and their data, not yours, and promises things you may not do.
- Listing services you do not use, or leaving out ones you do. The sharing section should match your site today.
- Saying "we never share your data" while using analytics, payment or email providers.
- Promising that data is "100% secure". Describe what you do; never guarantee it.
- Claiming the policy is "GDPR compliant". A policy is one part of compliance, not proof of it.
- Leaving out a way to contact you. Every right in the policy needs a place to use it.
- Forgetting the chat. If visitors type into a chat box, the policy should cover it.
- Never updating the date. Change "Last updated" each time you add a service or change how you use data.
Let an AI agent answer privacy questions from your policy
Visitors ask the same privacy questions before they share an email or place an order: what do you keep, who sees it, how do I delete it. A support agent can answer them from the policy you publish.
A support agent answering from a studio's privacy policy page
LuckPanda builds the agent from your own website pages, so it answers from your published policy instead of guessing, and you can paste the chatbot FAQ from this tool as FAQ entries. Every chat is kept in History, with the transcript and the visitor's details, so your team can follow up a request. Deleting a single chat from the app is not available yet, so write a retention line you can keep and handle deletion requests by hand.
Answer privacy questions on your website
Build a support agent from your site that answers questions from your privacy policy, and hands data requests to your team.
See the AI customer service agentQuestions people ask
Do I need a privacy policy on my website?
If your website collects personal data, such as a contact form, a newsletter sign-up, orders or analytics, most data-protection laws expect you to tell people about it, and a privacy policy is the usual way. Some laws apply only above a size threshold, so check the rules for your country on this page.
Is a free privacy policy generator good enough?
It gives you a clear first draft built from what you enter, so it lists your real data and services. It does not know everything about your business and is not legal advice: fill the slots, check the rules for each country you serve, and ask a lawyer if you handle sensitive data.
Can I copy another website's privacy policy?
Do not. It describes their data, their services and their promises, so it will be wrong for your site and may promise things you do not do. Write your own from what your website actually does.
Does my privacy policy need to mention my chatbot?
If visitors can type messages, names or emails into a chat on your site, yes: say what the chat collects, that an AI writes the answers if it does, who provides it, who can read the chats and how long you keep them.
What is the difference between a privacy policy and a cookie notice?
A privacy policy explains all the personal data you handle. A cookie notice or banner covers cookies and similar tools on the device, and in places such as the EU and the UK it is where you ask for consent to non-essential cookies.

Build it with your AI agent
Give an agent your site and it can create the chatbot, read your pages and test it through LuckPanda's API and MCP. It prepares the work; going live stays with you.
Use LuckPanda's MCP server (https://luckpanda.app/mcp) to build a website chatbot for me. Ask for my website address, call chatbot_create_from_website with it, wait until the pages are learned (chatbot_source_list), then run a few test questions with chatbot_test_message and show me the answers. Do not put it live: I will do that myself.
Instructions for AI agents
