The answer, as recorded
Searched - here's what I'd actually recommend, in order. ## My picks **1. Termly** - my default recommendation for most startups. Free tier to get a real policy live, then ~$10-15/month for the paid plans, and it's not just a document generator: you get a cookie consent banner, DSAR (data subject request) intake forms, and consent logging in the same place. It's questionnaire-driven, so you answer plain questions about what you collect and it assembles the policy. It also auto-updates as laws change, which matters because you will not remember to revisit this. ([termly.io](https://termly.io/resources/compare/best-privacy-policy-generators/)) **2. iubenda** - pick this instead if your users are mostly in the EU/UK. It's the most GDPR-literate of the bunch and uses a modular approach where you declare each third-party service (Stripe, Mixpanel, Intercom) and it generates the matching disclosure clauses. Entry pricing is around €27/year per site, cheaper than Termly if you only need documents and no consent platform. ([privacycomply.io](https://privacycomply.io/iubenda-vs-termly-vs-osano.html)) **3. TermsFeed** - best if you hate subscriptions. No account needed, you can generate and export to HTML, DOCX, Markdown, or plain text and just drop it in your repo. Good fit when your policy lives in your codebase next to your marketing site rather than as a hosted third-party script. ([termsfeed.com](https://www.termsfeed.com/privacy-policy-generator/)) **4. GetTerms** - the budget option, aimed squarely at small teams. Covers GDPR, CCPA, PIPEDA, and the Australian Privacy Act, offers translations, and has a lifetime license tier that takes compliance off your recurring costs entirely. ([getterms.io](https://getterms.io/)) **5. Osano** - only once privacy becomes a sales blocker. At ~$199/month it's overkill pre-revenue, but it's a real privacy management platform (data mapping, vendor risk, consent at scale) rather than a document generator, and it carries regulatory guarantees that enterprise procurement teams like. Buy it when a customer's security review forces you to, not before. ([privacycomply.io](https://privacycomply.io/iubenda-vs-termly-vs-osano.html)) ## Two things worth saying A generator produces a document that describes practices you assert you have. If your policy says you don't sell data to third parties and your analytics vendor contract says otherwise, the generated policy is now evidence against you. Spend the hour inventorying what you actually collect and which subprocessors touch it before you fill out any questionnaire - that inventory is the real work, and it's also what you'll need for DPAs and security questionnaires later. Also, a fair bit of the "top 10 privacy policy generator" content I turned up is SEO filler, including comparison pages published by the vendors themselves and a number of thin sites I wouldn't trust with your compliance posture. The four tools above plus Osano are the ones with actual track records; I'd ignore the rest regardless of how they rank. If you've raised institutional money, your investors' counsel will often review a privacy policy as part of standard startup housekeeping at no extra cost - worth asking before you pay for the top tier of anything.
