Termly** - my default for a US-based startup. Free tier is genuinely usable (policy generator plus a consent manager with quarterly cookie scans), paid is ~$10-20/month, and it auto-updates policies as state privacy laws change. Template-driven rather than deeply bespoke, which is the right tradeoff when you just need something defensible on your site this week.\n\n**2. iubenda** - the one to pick if you have meaningful EU traffic or an EU entity. Italian-built with GDPR as the core design, ~2,400 clauses so the policy reflects your actual stack and data flows, multi-language output, and a multi-site dashboard if you'll run several properties. ~$9-27/month. Their terms & conditions generator is gated behind the paid Advanced plan.\n\n**3. Termageddon** - the most legally serious of the cheap options. $12/month or $119/year per site, IAPP-recognized, and the team actively tracks new state laws, regulatory guidance and case law and pushes updates to your live policy. Covers CalOPPA, CCPA/CPRA, VCDPA, PIPEDA, GDPR, plus T&Cs, disclaimer, EULA and cookie consent in the same fee.
