Privacy Policies Protect Your Customers and Increase Credibility

You may not realize it but placing a well constructed privacy policy on your website can be very valuable.  It conveys a positive message to your customers, partners, readers and visitors.

Benefits of a Privacy Policy

  1. Protects your company from legal liability if constructed well
  2. Tells your customers what to expect when doing business with you(may answer the question “Is it Safe to Do business here?”
  3. Tells your partners that you protect their information.
  4. Tells your readers that you will not sell their contact information off to the highest bidder.
  5. Makes a good impression on visitors to your website positioning them to possibly become customers, partners, readers or maybe even employees.

If you do not know where to begin constructing a Privacy Policy, I recommend utilizing a tool offered by The-DMA.org (See their How to Construct a Privacy Policy and Privacy Policy Generator).  They will walk you through a question and answer form that will help you construct a proper Privacy Policy.

Example

You can build a very good website such as this site that features Orlando vacation home rental options and deals, but if you do not disclose a privacy policy on the front page, it leaves your visitors and customers a bit in question. This site would benefit greatly from declaring a privacy policy. Its simple, free and goes a long way towards building credibility.
