Legal pages
Imprint and privacy policy, written from what your website actually does
Everybody copies them from the last project — where the shop was not in yet, or the newsletter measured nothing. A policy that describes a different website is worse than none, because it looks like an answer. This one is read from the site in front of you.
What it reads
- Which modules are switched on right now
- Which outside services have a key entered
- What stands on the pages: video, map, Facebook
- Whether comments, accounts and the shop are open
- That your fonts come from your own server
What you enter
- Company or name, and who answers for the site
- Address, email, telephone, register and VAT number
- The company that runs your server
- Which country's rules apply: CH, DE or AT
- Nothing else — the rest is read
What comes out
- An imprint and a privacy policy, as drafts
- Ordinary pages made of blocks, not a black box
- A note at the top you delete once you have read it
- Your own work is never overwritten silently
- A warning when a module changes what is true
Two halves
What you know, and what the site knows.
On the left the things no program can know: who you are, where you are, who answers for the site, and which country's rules apply — it decides which duties are named and which law the section on your visitors' rights points to. On the right, read from the site itself, every fact that needs a paragraph. One button, and both pages stand there as drafts.
It notices when you change something
A policy that quietly goes out of date is the real problem.
Switch on the shop next month, or the newsletter, or the country lookup, and the screen says which paragraphs are now missing — by name. Write the pages again, or add the paragraphs yourself. What matters is that somebody is told.
The wording is ours
Not copied from a generator.
The sentences of the known generators are protected by copyright; what the law demands is not. So the duties come from the statutes — the Swiss Data Protection Act, the GDPR, § 5 of the German Digital Services Act, § 5 of the Austrian E-Commerce Act — and the words around them are written by us. A starting point written with care, not a legal opinion.
Questions
Is this legal advice?
No, and the page says so at the top. It is a starting point built from what your site really does. Whether it is complete for your business depends on your business — read it once, change what does not fit, and have it checked if something is at stake.
Which countries?
The privacy policy follows the GDPR, which reads the same in every country of the EU and the EEA, so it fits wherever you are. The imprint is the part that differs: Switzerland, Germany and Austria each have their own duties and their own section, and there is a fourth choice for anybody else in the EU or the EEA — the same policy, an imprint without those sections.
Can I edit the result?
Yes — they are ordinary pages made of blocks, opened in the same editor as everything else. Nothing is locked, nothing is generated again behind your back, and a second run asks before it overwrites your work.
What happens when I add a module later?
The screen tells you which paragraphs are now missing, by name. You decide whether to write the pages again or add the paragraphs yourself.
Is this in the free version?
No. Legal pages are a Pro module, included in every Pro plan.
