Privacy Policy & Legal Document Generator

Generate ready-to-use privacy policies, terms of service, and EULAs tailored to your app's data practices, third-party services, and target markets.

Disclaimer: This skill generates template legal documents based on common indie app scenarios. Consult a qualified lawyer for apps handling sensitive data (health, financial, children's data), apps with complex data sharing arrangements, or apps operating in highly regulated industries. These templates are a strong starting point -- not a substitute for legal counsel.

When This Skill Activates

Use this skill when the user:

• Needs a privacy policy for their app
• Needs terms of service or EULA
• Apple requires a privacy policy for App Store submission
• Is adding analytics, ads, or crash reporting and needs to update their privacy policy
• Asks about data collection disclosure or privacy compliance
• Mentions GDPR, CCPA, DPDP, or COPPA requirements for their app
• Wants to know what to declare in Apple's Privacy Nutrition Labels

Pre-Generation Checks

Before generating documents, gather context from the project.

1. Look for Existing Legal Documents

Glob: **/privacy*.md, **/privacy*.html, **/privacy*.txt
Glob: **/terms*.md, **/terms*.html, **/terms*.txt
Glob: **/eula*.md, **/eula*.html, **/eula*.txt
Glob: **/legal/**

If existing documents found, ask user whether to replace or update them.

2. Check for Third-Party SDK Usage

Grep: "Firebase" or "GoogleAnalytics" or "Crashlytics"
Grep: "Mixpanel" or "Amplitude" or "PostHog"
Grep: "AdMob" or "AppLovin" or "UnityAds"
Grep: "FacebookSDK" or "GoogleSignIn" or "SignInWithApple"
Grep: "Sentry" or "Bugsnag" or "DataDog"
Grep: "RevenueCat" or "Adapty" or "Qonversion"
Grep: "TelemetryDeck" or "Plausible" or "CountlySDK"

Note detected SDKs to auto-populate data collection sections.

3. Detect Data Collection Patterns in Code

Grep: "UserDefaults" -- Local preferences storage
Grep: "CoreData" or "SwiftData" or "NSPersistentContainer" -- Local database
Grep: "CloudKit" or "CKContainer" -- Cloud sync
Grep: "URLSession" or "Alamofire" -- Network calls
Grep: "HealthKit" or "HKHealthStore" -- Health data
Grep: "CLLocationManager" or "CoreLocation" -- Location data
Grep: "AVCaptureSession" or "PHPhotoLibrary" -- Camera/photos
Grep: "Contacts" or "CNContactStore" -- Contacts access
Grep: "ATTrackingManager" -- App Tracking Transparency
Grep: "ASAuthorizationAppleIDProvider" -- Sign in with Apple

4. Check Info.plist for Permission Usage Descriptions

Grep: "NSCameraUsageDescription" or "NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription"
Grep: "NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription" or "NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription"
Grep: "NSHealthShareUsageDescription" or "NSHealthUpdateUsageDescription"
Grep: "NSContactsUsageDescription" or "NSMicrophoneUsageDescription"
Grep: "NSUserTrackingUsageDescription"

Configuration Questions

Ask the user via AskUserQuestion:

1. What documents do you need?

• Privacy Policy only
• Terms of Service only
• EULA only
• All three (recommended for App Store apps)

2. What data does your app collect?

• No user data (fully offline, no accounts)
• Anonymous analytics only (usage events, crash data)
• Account with email (sign-in required)
• Account with personal info (name, email, profile, preferences)
• Health or financial data (triggers additional compliance sections)

3. What third-party services does your app use?

• None
• Analytics only (e.g., TelemetryDeck, Firebase Analytics)
• Analytics + crash reporting (e.g., Sentry, Crashlytics)
• Advertising (e.g., AdMob, AppLovin)
• Social login (e.g., Sign in with Apple, Google Sign-In)
• Multiple of the above (list them)

4. Does your app target or allow children under 13?

• No
• Yes (triggers COPPA section and stricter data practices)

5. Where will you host these documents?

• GitHub Pages (free, Markdown to HTML)
• In-app (Settings screen with WKWebView or Text view)
• Personal/company website
• All of the above (recommended -- Apple requires a publicly accessible URL)

Generation Process

Step 1: Select Template Sections

Read templates.md for the document templates.

Based on configuration answers, include or exclude sections:

Step 2: Fill in App-Specific Details

Replace template placeholders with detected or user-provided values:

• [APP_NAME] -- App display name
• [DEVELOPER_NAME] -- Developer or company name
• [CONTACT_EMAIL] -- Privacy contact email
• [EFFECTIVE_DATE] -- Document effective date
• [WEBSITE_URL] -- Developer website or privacy page URL

Step 3: Add Region-Specific Sections

Include sections based on target markets:

GDPR (European Union users):

• Data controller identification
• Lawful basis for processing (consent, legitimate interest, contract)
• Data subject rights (access, rectification, erasure, portability, objection)
• Data Protection Officer contact (if applicable)
• Data retention periods
• Right to lodge complaint with supervisory authority

CCPA (California users):

• Categories of personal information collected
• Business purposes for collection
• "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" notice
• Right to know, delete, and opt-out
• Non-discrimination for exercising rights
• Financial incentive disclosure (if applicable)

DPDP (India users):

• Data fiduciary identification
• Purpose of data processing
• Consent mechanism
• Data principal rights (access, correction, erasure, grievance redressal)
• Data retention limitations
• Processing of children's data (under 18)

COPPA (children under 13):

• Parental consent requirement
• Limited data collection (only what is strictly necessary)
• No behavioral advertising to children
• Parental rights (review, delete, refuse further collection)
• Safe harbor program compliance (if applicable)

Step 4: Generate Apple Privacy Nutrition Label Mapping

Based on detected data practices, generate a mapping for App Store Connect:

Apple Privacy Nutrition Label Mapping
=====================================

Data Types to Declare:
- [ ] Contact Info: Email Address -- Used for: App Functionality, Account
- [ ] Identifiers: User ID -- Used for: App Functionality
- [ ] Usage Data: Product Interaction -- Used for: Analytics
- [ ] Diagnostics: Crash Data -- Used for: App Functionality
- [ ] Diagnostics: Performance Data -- Used for: Analytics

Data Linked to User: [List items linked to user identity]
Data Used to Track: [List items used for cross-app tracking, if any]

Tracking: [Yes/No -- triggers ATT requirement if Yes]

Step 5: Output Documents

Generate documents in Markdown format. Place files based on user's hosting preference:

• GitHub Pages: docs/privacy-policy.md, docs/terms-of-service.md, docs/eula.md
• In-app: Resources/Legal/privacy-policy.md, etc.
• Website: Output to clipboard/file for manual upload
• All: Generate in docs/ with guidance for in-app integration

Apple-Required Privacy Disclosures

App Store Connect Privacy Questions

When submitting to the App Store, Apple asks about data practices. Map generated privacy policy to these questions:

Privacy Nutrition Labels

Declare these data types based on your app's practices:

When ATT (App Tracking Transparency) Is Required

ATT is required when your app:

• Accesses the IDFA (Identifier for Advertisers)
• Links user data with third-party data for advertising
• Shares user data with data brokers

ATT is NOT required for:

• First-party analytics that stays on your server
• Crash reporting
• Fraud detection
• Attribution that does not use IDFA (e.g., SKAdNetwork)

Hosting Guidance

GitHub Pages (Free, Recommended for Indie Devs)

1. Create docs/ folder in your repo 2. Add privacy-policy.md, terms-of-service.md, eula.md 3. Enable GitHub Pages in repo Settings > Pages > Source: /docs 4. Your URL: https://yourusername.github.io/yourapp/privacy-policy

In-App Display

// Option 1: WKWebView for hosted HTML
import WebKit

struct LegalDocumentView: UIViewRepresentable {
    let url: URL

    func makeUIView(context: Context) -> WKWebView { WKWebView() }
    func updateUIView(_ webView: WKWebView, context: Context) {
        webView.load(URLRequest(url: url))
    }
}

// Option 2: Bundled Markdown rendered as Text
struct PrivacyPolicyView: View {
    var body: some View {
        ScrollView {
            Text(LocalizedStringKey(privacyPolicyMarkdown))
                .padding()
                .textSelection(.enabled)
        }
        .navigationTitle("Privacy Policy")
    }
}

Apple Requirements for Privacy Policy URL

• Must be publicly accessible (not behind login or in-app only)
• Must be a working URL at all times (Apple checks during review)
• Required in App Store Connect under "App Privacy"
• Must also be accessible from within the app (Settings or About screen)

Template Usage Notes

Selecting Sections

Not all sections apply to every app. Use these guidelines:

Placeholder Checklist

Before publishing, verify all placeholders are replaced:

• [ ] [APP_NAME] replaced everywhere
• [ ] [DEVELOPER_NAME] replaced everywhere
• [ ] [CONTACT_EMAIL] replaced with a working email
• [ ] [EFFECTIVE_DATE] set to publication date
• [ ] [WEBSITE_URL] set to a live, accessible URL
• [ ] Conditional sections removed or included based on app type
• [ ] Third-party services table updated with actual services used
• [ ] Regional sections (GDPR/CCPA/DPDP) included for target markets
• [ ] COPPA section included or excluded based on audience

Formatting for Different Hosts

GitHub Pages: Use the Markdown as-is. GitHub Pages renders it directly.

In-app display: Convert Markdown to attributed string or use a Markdown renderer. Tables may need special handling.

Website: Convert to HTML. Most static site generators (Jekyll, Hugo, Next.js) handle Markdown natively.

Annual Review Reminder

Legal documents should be reviewed at least annually or whenever:

• You add new third-party SDKs or services
• You change data collection practices
• You add new features that collect data (location, health, contacts)
• Privacy regulations change in your target markets
• You expand to new geographic markets
