Why You Need a Privacy Policy for Custom Site
Running a Custom Site store means you are collecting personal data from your customers, including names, addresses, and payment information. Global privacy laws like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in Europe and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) mandate that ecommerce businesses transparently disclose how they handle this sensitive data.
Failing to provide a clear, accessible privacy policy can result in significant legal fines and loss of consumer trust. Furthermore, payment gateways like Stripe and PayPal often require a visible privacy policy and terms of service before approving your merchant account.
How to Add These Policies to Custom Site
For any custom site or CMS, policies are added as standalone pages and linked from the footer so they are reachable from every page.
- Create a new page or route in your CMS for /privacy, /terms, and /refund.
- Paste the copied HTML into the page's HTML or code view (not the rich-text editor).
- Publish each page.
- Add footer links to all three policies so they appear on every page of your site.
- Add a cookie consent banner if you serve EU or California visitors.
Note: GDPR requires policies to be 'easily accessible' — a footer link visible on every page satisfies this. Burying policies behind a contact form does not.
Custom Site-Specific Compliance Notes
- Custom sites have no built-in compliance tooling. You are responsible for implementing cookie consent, data subject request handling, and policy visibility.
- If you process payments via Stripe, PayPal, or another gateway, list each processor in the third-party services section of your Privacy Policy.
Custom Site Policy FAQ
Do I need these policies if my custom site does not sell anything?
If you collect any personal data — emails, cookies, analytics, contact form submissions — GDPR and CCPA require a Privacy Policy. Terms of Service are recommended for any site with user accounts, and a Refund Policy is needed only if you sell goods or services.
How do I add a cookie consent banner to a custom site?
Use a free script like Osano, CookieYes, or Klaro. Configure the banner categories to match the cookie categories disclosed in your generated Privacy Policy so the two stay consistent.
Where should policy links appear on a custom site?
In the site footer so they are reachable from every page. GDPR requires policies to be "easily accessible" — a footer link on all pages satisfies this; a single link from your homepage does not.
