Updating Your Privacy Policy

Updating Your Privacy Policy and Cookie Banner for Squid

To ensure compliance and transparency while using Squid's technology, it’s important to update your Privacy Policy and Cookie Banner to reflect how data is processed. Below is a guide to help you make the necessary updates. If your current policy and banner already has similar language, you might be good to go. Always consult with your legal team to be sure.

Updating Your Privacy Policy

Your privacy policy should clearly explain how Squid's technology uses cookies and collects visitor data. Below is the recommended language you can incorporate into your privacy policy:

Privacy Policy Language:

When you visit or interact with our website, we use cookies and similar technologies, including services provided by our online data partners, to analyze activity and associate it with other personal information that may already be available, such as your name, email address, or company details.

This data helps us understand visitor engagement, improve website functionality, and send relevant communications or marketing material.

You can opt-out of data processing or email-based marketing by sending us an email or adjusting your browser settings to limit cookie collection.

The language provided is a starting point. Collaborate with your legal team to ensure the updated policy complies with privacy laws like GDPR, CCPA, or any applicable regulations in your jurisdiction.

Updating Your Cookie Banner

Your cookie banner should reflect how Squid’s cookies collect and process visitor data. Below is an example banner message to update your website:

Cookie Banner Language:

“We use cookies to help you navigate efficiently and perform key functions. These cookies enable us to provide analytics insights, improve your experience, and offer personalized content or ads.

By clicking ‘Accept All,’ you agree to the use of cookies for these purposes. You can manage your preferences or learn more in our Privacy Policy.”

Synchronize Privacy and Cookie Policies

To maintain consistency and ensure compliance:

Update both the Privacy Policy and Cookie Banner to align with Squid’s data processing practices.
Optional: Use a cookie compliance tool (e.g., CookiePro or OneTrust) to provide visitors with clear choices and transparency.

Why This Matters

Accurate privacy and cookie disclosures help you:

Build trust with website visitors.
Stay compliant with global data protection regulations.
Avoid potential legal risks.
