A privacy policy is required for companies collecting and storing the personal data of the customers. The website privacy terms go separately from the terms and conditions agreement and describe how the company collects, stores, and uses personal information. The requirement to have privacy terms became widespread after the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA) were drafted. The CalOPPA protects California residents' data and indicates that all websites collecting personal information must include understandable privacy terms. Since almost every website and app collects some personal information directly or indirectly, they need to have privacy policies in most cases.
