How to add another language to your privacy policy

Common questions regarding languages are:

  • How can I use a language other than English in my privacy policy?
  • Can I add a language to an existing privacy policy? Does this translated policy automatically update and incorporate the same settings as the original policy?

Answers:

How can I use a language other than English in my privacy policy?

Doing so is easy. Simply locate any of the “Generate privacy policy” buttons. From there you can select the language you would like to generate it in.

Can I add a language to an existing privacy policy? Does this translated policy automatically update and incorporate the same settings as the original policy?

Yes, you can easily add another language to your existing privacy policy from your dashboard – and the various languages and policies sync whenever you make changes to one of the policies.

  1. Log in to your dashboard
  2. Select your existing site/policy
  3. Then on the right, find the language widget
  4. Add another language to the policy
  5. See how it duplicates all the existing clauses and keeps syncing the multiple languages

Last step: integration!

Since the languages each have their own link you need to add each of these links or embedding codes to that specific version of your site. Here’s a screenshot of both the languages widget in the sidebar and the integration tabs on the left.

Below is an example of how to work with multiple languages:

You have an app with a German and English version, which means that you are required to make your legal documents available in either language.

In your German pages you’ll get the link pictured above (you can see the “now editing” copy in the languages widget).

When that is done, click on the English version in the languages sidebar. Repeat the process and retrieve the respective links (or embedding code) in the integration tabs.

Our service does its best to provide you with a starting point, like an extremely sophisticated templates book, but even if we strive to provide the best assistance possible, we cannot guarantee any conformity with the law, which only a lawyer can do.
