Frequently asked questions

Do I need a privacy policy if I only sell in-store?

Yes, if you collect any customer information such as names, phone numbers, or payment details, you need a privacy policy. Many state laws apply to businesses that collect personal data from residents, regardless of whether the sale happens online or in person.

What is the 'Do Not Sell or Share' requirement?

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and similar laws, consumers have the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of their personal information. If you sell or share data, you must provide a clear link or mechanism for customers to exercise this right.

How often should I update my privacy policy?

You should update your privacy policy whenever your data practices change, such as adding a new service provider, launching a loyalty program, or collecting new types of data. Also, review it annually to ensure compliance with evolving state laws.
