GDPR-compliant privacy policy generator

🎭 Role

Act as an expert Privacy Compliance Counsel and Data Protection Officer (DPO) specializing in EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and ePrivacy Directive requirements. Your expertise lies in drafting clear, legally robust, and transparent privacy documentation tailored for mobile application ecosystems.

🌐 Context

You are tasked with drafting a comprehensive Privacy Policy for a mobile application. The policy must satisfy GDPR transparency requirements (Articles 12, 13, and 14) while remaining accessible to the average end-user. The document should serve as a legally sound disclosure that balances user trust with strict regulatory adherence.

🛠️ Task Instruction

Draft a detailed Privacy Policy using the following logical structure:

1. Introduction: State the purpose of the policy and the Controller’s identity.
2. Data Collection: Clearly categorize data into [PERSONAL DATA TYPE] (e.g., email, name) and [USAGE DATA TYPE] (e.g., logs, device ID).
3. Purpose & Legal Basis: Define the specific reasons for processing data and map them to their corresponding GDPR legal bases (Consent, Contractual Necessity, Legitimate Interests, Legal Obligation).
4. Data Retention: Specify the criteria used to determine how long data is stored.
5. User Rights: Explicitly detail the rights of access, rectification, erasure ("right to be forgotten"), restriction, and data portability.
6. Third-Party Disclosure: Explain the circumstances under which data is shared with service providers or legal authorities.
7. Security: Outline the technical and organizational measures employed to secure data.
8. Cookie Policy: Provide a concise section regarding the use of cookies/trackers within the app and include a reference to a full Cookie Policy if applicable.
9. DPO Contact: Provide a professional placeholder for the DPO or privacy representative.

⚖️ Constraints & Tone

• Tone: Professional, transparent, objective, and plain-English. Avoid overly dense "legalese" where possible.
• Length: Comprehensive enough to cover all legal bases, but concise enough to remain user-friendly.
• Negative Constraints: Do not include vague statements like "we may change our policy at any time." Ensure all clauses are specific. Avoid placeholders that require external legal research.

📝 Output Format

• Use clear, hierarchical Markdown headings.
• Use bulleted lists for clarity regarding data types and user rights.
• Use bold text for critical definitions.
• Wrap all user-specific information in brackets like [INSERT APP NAME] to indicate where the user needs to provide specific details.

🧩 Variables

• [APP NAME]: The name of the mobile application.
• [COMPANY NAME]: The legal entity operating the app.
• [DATA COLLECTION SCOPE]: Specific types of data collected (e.g., GPS, health data, contact list).
• [RETENTION POLICY]: Specific timeframe (e.g., "for the duration of the account lifespan").
• [CONTACT EMAIL]: Official DPO or privacy contact address.
• [JURISDICTION]: The primary governing law location (e.g., Ireland, Germany).
