About this tool

Paste your privacy policy text and get a compliance analysis against GDPR Article 13/14, India's DPDP Act notice standard, and the CCPA notice-at-collection requirements. Reports back the missing disclosures with a quick-fix pointer.

What you'll get

  • A per-regulation pass/fail list for every mandatory disclosure.
  • Red flags for commonly missing clauses (lawful basis, retention, grievance officer, DPO contact).
  • Suggested text snippets you can copy into your policy.

How it works

  1. The checker runs text analysis locally in your browser — no data leaves the page.
  2. It looks for named disclosures, named role contacts, and clause patterns rather than exact wording, so paraphrased policies still pass.
  3. Each regulation is scored independently so you can see where a GDPR-compliant policy still misses the DPDP grievance officer or the CCPA 'Do Not Sell' link.

Based on

  • GDPR Articles 13 and 14 (information to data subjects).
  • DPDP Act Section 5 (notice standard) + Schedule.
  • CCPA § 1798.100(a) notice at collection + § 1798.135 opt-out.

Frequently asked questions

Is my pasted policy sent to a server?+

No. The checker runs entirely in your browser. Nothing is uploaded or logged.

Does the checker rewrite my policy for me?+

No — it flags gaps and suggests clause-level snippets. The authoring judgement remains yours (or your legal team's). TruePrivacy's /templates/privacy-policy-generator is the right starting point for a from-scratch rewrite.

What about multi-regulation policies?+

The checker runs GDPR, DPDP and CCPA checks in parallel. A single global policy that satisfies all three is the common target; the per-regulation column tells you where it falls short of each.

Does it check for ePrivacy / cookie-policy content?+

No — that's a separate check at /tools/cookie-scanner. Keep your cookie policy as a sibling document, not inside the main privacy policy.
