All Australian websites need a Privacy Policy – use our website Privacy Policy template!
Privacy legislation now requires ALL Australian websites to post a Privacy Policy statement if they collect any customer or website visitor information:
- Email addresses
- Physical addresses
- Telephone numbers
- Credit card numbers, etc.
So even if you have a basic Contact Form on your website, you MUST have a Privacy Policy.
Covers Australia, New Zealand, Canada, etc.
Australia’s privacy regulations are some of the most stringent in the world, and so if you meet them, you will satisfy other jurisdictions too. The Legal123 template may be used for Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Hong Kong and Singapore. So you can use the template for websites with the domains “.com.au”, “.co.nz”, “.ca”, “.hk” and “.sg”.
If you collect UK and EU email addresses and need to comply with GDPR, we offer additional GDPR Privacy Policy Clauses.
One quick and easy online form
Just input your website name and contact details, and your Australian Privacy Policy is generated automatically. Copy and paste the text into your website editor (or email it to your website designer), and you’re done. You also get a ready-to-use cookie banner notice to paste onto your site. You can finish in less than 5 minutes!

Is the website Privacy Policy template right for me?
I just run a blog …
If you have a contact form on your blog, you’re asking for an email address. This is considered private information, and you need a Privacy Policy notifying visitors how you use this information.
I have a fitness website …
If you’re asking people their age, sex, fitness level, medical history, etc. you’re collecting personal information, and you need to post a Privacy Policy on your website.
I collect personal/health information …
Then you need a Privacy Policy on your website. This states what information you collect and how you keep it safe. It’s required by Australian privacy law.
I sell products through my website …
Then you need Website Terms & Conditions. These state your business service standards and are required by Australian Consumer Law.

What our clients say …
I needed insight and advice to help navigate through what to me were unchartered waters starting my first online business. And Vanessa delivered on both counts. But she also made me feel that it was as important to her as it was to me that we sorted out the best way forward and managed the embryonic relationships sensitively. Thank goodness I chose Legal123.
I purchased the Website Legal Package and paid a little bit more to have it customised to suit my unique needs. Legal123 were absolutely fantastic - very responsive and very helpful. I feel I got great value for money. My new web business now has all the Ts & Cs in place for just hundreds rather than thousands of dollars. I'll definitely turn to you the next time we require a legal template. Thank you!
After numerous conversations with some of Australia's leading Legal firms, I stumbled across Legal123. During the first few minutes of our conversation it was clear to me that Vanessa's knowledge around Website legalities was superior. Engaging Legal123 so early in the piece enabled our team to make many critical changes to the point where Vanessa now plays a pivotal role in our success. I couldn't recommend Legal123 more highly.
Outstanding. Love the speed and efficiency of getting the forms I needed!
Customer service is EXCEPTIONAL - great product to boot - saved us thousands.
Such a great model for obtaining business legal docs - if you know what you need, you can save serious money - customer service is fantastic as well.
Ease of use - Epic. Quality of products - Awesome. Support - Sensational. Will use them again - Are you kidding? Of course. Will recommend to friends - Already did!
Absolutely impressed with both the legal document package I purchased today and the subsequent customer service I received from Legal123 when I had an issue with the order. Great customer service and thanks heaps. You definitely made my day today.
I found the templates so easy and simple. Rather than spend hours on sites trying to determine what I needed, I simply purchased and uploaded and my site was finally ready to be launched. I would recommend this process to anyone.
