A **Privacy Policy page** is a document or section on a website or application that explains how a company or organization collects, uses, stores, and protects user data. It is an essential part of any online service, ensuring transparency and compliance with legal regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), or other data protection laws.
