Privacy Policy Plugin For WordPress
At the end of February, 2008, Google started requiring AdSense publishers to display a privacy policy on all sites that displayed AdSense ads or search boxes. Since many WordPress blogs are monetized with AdSense, I decided to write a plugin that would automate the creation of AdSense-compliant privacy policies for WordPress users. Thus the Privacy Policy Plugin for WordPress was born.
Requirements
Self-hosted WordPress 2.0 or higher. You don’t actually need to be displaying AdSense ads, the privacy policy is generic enough to be used with most sites. If you collect any kind of personal information via a squeeze page, however, you’ll have to wait for an update to the plugin to handle those situations.
Installation
Installation is simple, as with most WordPress plugins. Download the privacy-policy-1.1.zip file and extract its contents into your blog’s wp-content/plugins folder. This will create a new privacy-policy subfolder containing the plugin. (The plugin doesn’t actually need to be in its own subfolder, but it’s recommended you place it there.) Go to the Plugins tab in your WordPress administration console and activate the plugin.
Usage
Once the plugin has been activated, go to the Options tag and click on Privacy Policy. Reasonable defaults will be selected for the privacy policy, but change them as appropriate and press the Update Options button to store the new settings.
Now create the privacy policy page for your site. The easiest way to do this is to press the Create Page button at the bottom of the options page. This creates a static page with the given title and slug (path) that displays a privacy policy based on the current settings.
Alternatively, you can simply insert a privacy policy onto an existing page using the special trigger text:
<!-- privacy-policy -->
anywhere on the page. When the page is displayed, the trigger is replaced with the current privacy policy.
That’s it! Short and simple.
Future Plans
If there’s enough interest, I will add features to this plugin such as:
- Support for different privacy policies (perhaps based on locale?)
- Multi-lingual support
- Squeeze pages
- More configurability
Just leave a comment here and we can discuss it.
Updates
- Version 1.1 (March 21, 2009): Updated the plugin to meet Google’s new AdSense privacy policy requirements. Just copy the new privacy-policy.php file over the old one and your privacy policy will be automatically updated.

Thanks Eric! Much appreciated.

Great help to us all, Eric, thanks. And to Rudy (an dothers who may be amazed at that is needed), this is why some of my sites haven’t yet had a privacy policy displayed, it’s darn complicated to do right.
Thanks Eric,
I didn’t even realise Google was now requiring this, so this was a timely update.
I’ll go add this plugin to my WP blogs with Adsense & put this baby to bed…

One more thing – what about a privacy policy plug-in for blogs on other platforms like blogspot.com ?
Thanks Eric
Like Eran, I did not realise that this was what Google actually wanted, their T&C are a little vague. I spent all morning trying to find some more useful info.
I’ve added it to my blog and included some words in a blog post. I will be using a similar page on all my websites from now on.
Thanks again

I’m not sure I could write a plugin for all the platforms, but perhaps a standalone privacy policy generator would do? I should be able to adapt the plugin code for that pretty quickly.

Thanks for making this plugin.
However, it would be more useful if users could amend or modify this plugin to suit the wording to their own tastes easily, instead of having to open up the file itself, because on Manage Pages, you can’t see the text. Maybe an options page that shows the text preview and ability to amend it?
But still, it’s a novel concept to create a plugin just for this purpose.
Yes, I’d like to expand it to make it more configurable. I thought I’d just get it out the door first, though, and see what people wanted.
I have subscrived to your RSS Feed.
If you have a new version for translation into Portuguese, let me know.

Are you sure that you also don’t have to create a machine readable xml file?
IE requires this to read a sites privacy policy. Could you add this to this plugin?

Thanks for this one. This will make it easier to plug the privacy policy, especially if you are owning several sites.

This is a usefel pluggin for me. I’ve downloaded. So I just go to my cpanel to upload it. Thanks alot.
Tried it on a new 2.5 blog. Didn’t seem to work very well. It created the privacy page alright, But, there was no text (just the html privacy-policy comment). And, somehow I ended up with three different pages while trying to click on the “reload defaults” and “update options” buttons.
Looking at your code I can see where it’s supposed to be creating text. I’m just not sure why it didn’t.
I think the plugin idea is good. For future versions you might want to consider something like this page http://www.serprank.com/privacy-policy-generator/adsense-policy-1.php which allows you to specifically name the vendor ads that might appear on the page.
Me again. I finally tracked it down. The issue was not with the Privacy plugin but with Contact Form 7. For whatever reason, CF7 was interfering with a sholw set of plugins. Perhaps you could contact them and figure it out together?
I’d still like to see the type of options as in the link I posted. But, overall, good job.

Hi Eric,
thanks for making this available. Now what about the part about the squeeze page. Or the sign-up form that I (and many people) have on my blog to get people on my mailing list.
How would I integrate that with the plug-in? Or when will the new version be available that has that integrated.
The way it looks to me, I’ll still have to do it by hand, unless I have a second privacy policy posted with a little “P.S.” or something.
(and I better get this set up pronto too).
Thanks.

Nice plugin, would be nice though to store the text in the database so it can be viewed and edited in the admin options. That would also be a good stepping stone to making a multi instance version of this plugin where you can select the appropriate policy for each use.

Hi Eric,
It looks likes 1.0 is not going to be useful after the April deadline Adsense is giving us. We have to now have THIS in our privacy policies: with the anchored links for the Google info, of course.
Any plans on adding that to your plug in? If so, I will be able to start using it.
* Google, as a third party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on your site.
* Google’s use of the DART cookie enables it to serve ads to your users based on their visit to your sites and other sites on the Internet.
* Users may opt out of the use of the DART cookie by visiting the Google ad and content network privacy policy.
I plan on updating the plugin shortly, don’t worry, to handle the new privacy policy requirements.

QUESTION: For my dozens of non-WordPress sites, would it be Google-safe to just upload one privacy page file that names (instead of the name of *a* site) my name or my company name at the beginning?
And then link to that generic page—instead of having to ftp a customized privacy page to each and every non-WordPress site?
Hope this question is not too off-topic. Time is running out, and I can’t figure out the answer.
Thanks!

I jsut recently was given a Kindle for my birthday and I haven’t stopped telling people about it. I use mine basically just for pleasure reading so far. I have found that I actually read more books with this device becasue they are right at my finger tips. The kindle makes it so easy to research the books they have to offer. The ease of downloading the books is amazing. It is really cool to download a book while sitting by the pool or in traffic. If you are a bit worried about reading on an electronic device and not paper don’t be. I have to say I was a bit worried about that too. I am looking at a computer all day at work and didn’t know if I woudl like reading on the Kindle but it is nothing like a computer screen. The whole device just goes away and you are just focusing on the words. I jsut can’t say how happy i am with this product. It is very easy to use and jsut a great companion. I would reccomend getting some sort of case for it though jsut for protection.

About a ages ago, the Purse Blog aggregation abounding the Kayne West Shoe barrage at Louis Vuitton Bal Harbour.

The apparent covering appears liquified and the LV signature in aureate assumption finishes the clamp off beautifully.

Nice plugin. Does this work with wp-2.9.1? Thanks
Nice plugin
nice plugin privacy is very important for SEO these days
Just testing your plugin,
it isn’t working for me on WP 2.9.1
fails to do the str_replace.
My page has the commented html code.
Reviewing the code, I have a few suggestions:
Instead of having each option as an option, you could put all options into an array, then you only have one call to the data base, instead of the 9 or 10 presently made.
Also, you might want to use the WP API shortcode rather than a str_replace, alot more standard in WP, also, doesn’t have to filter all content on all posts looking for your string.
Just a couple of suggestions, hopefully to make this plugin a little better, faster, smoother.
Thanx.
Invaluable Plug-in. When Google does come up with new requirements, it becomes incumbent to have easy and quick access such as the one you have provided.

It is a very useful content,i had bookmarded your post.Here is some information for cheap discount coupons.It is a fact that cigarette smoking is injurious to health but if you go with reputed brand like Marlboro then the harm is less as compared to harm which other cheap and harmful cigarettes can do. It is so because Marlboro’s quality standards are high and it uses the right nicotine content and menthol which gives the real pleasure of smoking. In addition with the help of discount coupons you can even buy them very cheap.
I’m glad I found this site, great tips and it definitely helps me a lot. Thanks
