If information collected from the users is being shared with group companies or affiliates, consider attaching to the policy a schedule of group companies or affiliates, as the data subject has a right to know who has access to their information.
If your website uses cookies, users must be given the opportunity to expressly consent to the use of cookies. This can be done by updating your website with a pop-up or message bar (whichever you chose during the interview) asking the users to accept the use of cookies.
Additionally you should add a link to the cookies policy on every page of your website which collects personal information.
Make the website privacy policy available to the users of your website by placing a link in the footer section of every page that users can access.
The website privacy policy is not a contract and does not need to be signed by the website users. By using the website the users consent to the terms of this policy.
A copy of the website privacy policy will be stored under "My Documents" in your Rocket Lawyer account.
When the website privacy policy is amended, keep a copy of each version of it that has been in force, a record of when it was introduced and how and when each version was made available to users of your website.
