Privacy Policy Implementation on Site
Privacy policy is a legally required document for any site collecting personal data. Required by 152-FZ (RF), GDPR (EU), CCPA (USA), and advertising platform terms (Google Ads, Facebook).
Required Content
Mandatory sections by 152-FZ:
- Who is the personal data operator (name, contacts)
- List of collected personal data
- Purposes and legal basis for processing
- Data retention periods
- Third-party data transfer procedures
- Rights of data subjects and how to exercise them
- Cookies and analytics usage
Technical Implementation
Privacy policy must be:
Available at permanent URL: /privacy-policy or /privacy-policy
// routes/web.php
Route::get('/privacy-policy', fn() => view('legal.privacy-policy'))
->name('privacy-policy');
Versioned: on change — new version with date, old versions archived.
// Store versions in database
Schema::create('legal_documents', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->id();
$table->string('type'); // 'privacy_policy', 'terms'
$table->string('version'); // '2024-03-01'
$table->text('content_ru');
$table->text('content_en')->nullable();
$table->boolean('is_current')->default(false);
$table->timestamp('published_at');
});
Linked to all data collection forms:
<form>
<label>
<input type="checkbox" name="consent" required>
I agree to
<a href="{{ route('privacy-policy') }}" target="_blank" rel="noopener">
privacy policy
</a>
</label>
</form>
Link in footer of every page:
{{-- footer.blade.php --}}
<a href="{{ route('privacy-policy') }}">Privacy Policy</a>
Links in Meta Tags (for search engines)
<link rel="privacy-policy" href="/privacy-policy">
Implementation Timeline
Technical part: page + versioning + form linking — 4–8 hours. Legal content prepared by lawyer separately.
