About App Privacy Policy Generator
App Privacy Policy Generator is a free, open source web app by Nishant Srivastava for creating a privacy policy or terms and conditions for mobile and web apps. The project is hosted on GitHub under the AGPL-3.0 licence. The repository was created in 2017, is not archived and was still receiving updates at the time of checking.
The wizard asks for your app name, contact details, business address, effective date, the personal information you collect and an age of consent. You choose the app type (free, open source, freemium, ad supported or commercial), the target platforms (Android, iOS, KaiOS, Windows and web) and the third party services your app uses. There are toggles for location tracking, AI use and data deletion, and you can add an EU representative.
Privacy policies come in three styles: Simple, No Tracking and GDPR. The tool runs in the browser, can work offline as a progressive web app and does not ask you to create an account.
How to create a policy with App Privacy Policy Generator
- Choose the document type: Simple, No Tracking or GDPR.
- Enter your app and contact details and the personal information you collect.
- Select your app type, platforms and the third party services you use.
- Preview the result and export it as HTML or Markdown, then host it yourself, for example alongside your app store listing.
Things to know
- No hosting or updates: The tool generates a document for you to publish. Keeping it current is your responsibility.
- Aimed at apps: The questions are written for app developers, so a general website or online shop may need a different tool.
- Community maintained: The project accepts bug fixes and asks for sponsorship to cover running costs.
- Check the output: The generated text is a template. Review it against how your app actually handles data and any UK GDPR obligations that apply to you.
