At numerous requests from working webmasters and site owners, we have published a free sample Privacy Policy for sites with a form feedback, subscription or order a call.

We decided to take this step because this form The policy does not provide for processing personal data, and as a result does not imply much variability in the solution. It is important to remember that it is not suitable for sites that process personal data. For example, online stores and other services where, in addition to a phone number or email, the user additionally provides other information about himself, require more attention to the issues of processing personal data.

Therefore, we thought about options for drawing up a “people’s” Privacy Policy. A simple template will not do here. We took as a basis the Recommendations of Roskomnadzor (hereinafter referred to as the “Recommendations”) issued in 2017 on the preparation of a document defining the operator’s policy regarding the processing of personal data (hereinafter referred to as the “Policy”). We supplemented it with live examples.

Let's see what happened.

Section 2 quotes the basic concepts from the Federal Law “On Personal Data”. We skip it as unnecessary. If desired, it is better to introduce your own terms into the Policy, clarifying the legal ones.

Section 3 finally provided the long-awaited advice on the structure and content of the Policy. Let's look at them in detail.

1. General provisions of the Policy

In this section, it is recommended to describe the purpose of the Policy, as well as include the basic concepts used in it (processing of personal data, operator, subject of personal data, confidentiality of personal data, etc.), list the basic rights and obligations of the operator and subject(s) of personal data data.

So let's start with definitions. In order not to repeat Federal Law 152, we suggest making references to specific clauses and sections of the Policy that specify the concepts used. Below is an example of the terms and definitions of the Privacy Policy for an online store.

1.1. In this document and the relations of the Parties arising or related thereto, the following terms and definitions apply:

Personal Information- data provided by the subject of personal data or his representative, the scope and composition of which are indicated in paragraph X.X. Politicians.

Administration- Romashka LLC, INN XXX, OGRN XXX, Address: XXXXX, in the legal possession and/or management of which the Site is located. In the cases provided for in this Policy, the Administration acts as a personal data operator.

User- a person using the Site for the purpose of concluding and/or executing Agreements.

3. Legal grounds for processing personal data

According to the explanation of Roskomnadzor, the legal basis for the processing of personal data is the set of legal acts in pursuance of which and in accordance with which the operator processes personal data.

If the above link exists, the legal basis for the processing of personal data may be the agreements concluded between the operator and the subject of personal data.

If personal data is processed for other purposes, a separate consent to the processing of personal data must be indicated as a basis.

4. Volume and categories of personal data processed, categories of personal data subjects

Roskomnadzor warns that the content and volume of personal data processed must correspond to the stated purposes of processing. The personal data processed should not be redundant in relation to the stated purposes of their processing.

First of all, we indicate data from the fields of online feedback, order, subscription and registration forms. Then we pay close attention to the composition of the information entered by the user when filling out a profile in his personal account.

Additionally, we indicate the data that is requested by support or the sales department when filling out or processing applications over the phone or at service points.

5. Procedure and conditions for processing personal data

Let's choose. Federal Law 152 provides the following list of operations with personal data: collection, recording, systematization, accumulation, storage, clarification (updating, changing), extraction, use, transfer (distribution, provision, access), depersonalization, blocking, deletion, destruction of personal data.

Processing methods may include:

a) automated processing of personal data

b) processing of personal data without the use of automation tools.

According to the definition given in Federal Law 152, automated processing of personal data is the processing of personal data using means computer technology.

It would seem that this includes any actions with personal data performed using computer technology. But it's not that simple. We look at the Regulations on the peculiarities of processing personal data carried out without the use of automation tools, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of September 15, 2008 N 687.

Clause 1 states that the processing of personal data contained in information system personal data or extracted from such a system (hereinafter referred to as personal data) is considered to be carried out without the use of automation tools (non-automated), if such actions with personal data as use, clarification, distribution, destruction of personal data in relation to each of the subjects of personal data are carried out with direct human participation.

The processing of personal data cannot be recognized as carried out using automation tools only on the basis that personal data is contained in the personal data information system or was extracted from it (clause 2).

In other words, if the PD is not used, is not specified, distributed or destroyed in the IPDN of your website in automatic mode without human intervention, you can safely choose the second processing method - processing personal data without the use of automation tools.

The result of this simple action will be a legal refusal to apply the draconian requirements of Federal Law 152 for the processing of automated processing of personal income tax in the information system.

Regarding the timing of PD processing We propose to indicate at least the validity period of the agreement for the purposes of which the PD was requested. You can add to the validity period of the contract 3 years of limitation for the protection of rights in connection with its execution.

Roskomnadzor reminds that when storing personal data, the personal data operator is obliged to use databases located on the territory Russian Federation, in accordance with Part 5 of Art. 18 of the Federal Law "On Personal Data". It is not necessary to reflect this point in the Policy, since it is related to actual circumstances. Although, as a matter of form, you can include in the Policy a declarative article on the processing of personal data in Russia.

• The user has expressed his consent to such actions;
• The transfer is required for the conclusion and performance of contracts on or using the Site;
• At the request of a court or other authorized government body within the framework of the procedure established by law
• To protect rights and legitimate interests in connection with violation of agreements concluded with the user.

Within certain limits, this list can be expanded to include cases of sale of the Site or transfer of PD in anonymized form.

In addition, Roskomnadzor recommends indicating in this section of the Policy information about compliance with the requirements for confidentiality of personal data established by Art. 7 of the Federal Law “On Personal Data”, as well as information about the operator taking measures provided for in Part 2 of Art. 18.1, part 1 art. 19 of the Federal Law “On Personal Data”.

In practice, this information boils down to a statement that the Site administration stores Personal Data and ensures its protection from unauthorized access and distribution in accordance with internal rules and regulations.

6. Updating, correction, deletion and destruction of personal data, responses to requests from subjects for access to personal data

Roskomnadzor recommends including in the Policy regulations(s) for responding to requests/appeals from personal data subjects and their representatives, authorized bodies regarding the inaccuracy of personal data, illegality of their processing, withdrawal of consent and access of the personal data subject to their data, as well as relevant forms of requests/ requests.

In such cases, it is usually indicated that the user has the right at any time to independently edit the information provided by him in his personal account. In case of termination of the concluded agreement, the user has the right to delete his own Personal Area yourself or by contacting the support service at Email [email protected].

If desired, you can tighten the terms of the regulations for processing requests to change/delete PD, requiring the user to send valuable letters to your address in Bobruisk.

7. Processing of anonymized data

It is noteworthy that Roskomnadzor, as always, avoided the issue of processing equally important data for users that is not considered personal. We are talking about information collected automatically on the site: cookies, IP, information about the device and its location, etc.

Apparently, Roskomnadzor stubbornly does not want to disclose the composition of personal data, even by exclusion through information that is not personal. However, in practice, it is customary to include a notice and procedure for processing such data in the Privacy Policy in order to fully inform the user about the consequences of using the site.

Below is an example of such a notification.

You understand and accept the possibility of use on the Site software third parties, as a result of which such persons can receive and transmit data in anonymized form.
These third party software include Google Analytics visitor statistics collection systems.

The composition and conditions for collecting anonymized data using third-party software are determined directly by their copyright holders and may include:

• browser data (type, version, cookie);
• device data and its location;
• operating system data (type, version, screen resolution);
• request data (time, referral source, IP address).

A full description of the conditions for processing anonymized data can be found in the sample Privacy Policy with which we began our article.

We wish you success in developing your own Privacy Policy in accordance with the recommendations of Roskomnadzor and the approaches developed in practice.

Part 3

Compliance with legal requirements for privacy policy

Do you need a privacy policy? you collect personal information about clients, be it operations related to working with a website or a page in in social networks? Then you must create and comply with a privacy policy. In other words, these will be your terms and conditions for the collection, use, transfer and protection of third party data. The Consumer Protection Bureau describes the importance of privacy and policy on its website. The US Small Business Administration also recognizes the importance of confidentiality and privacy, as described on the organization's website.

Review the types of clauses in the privacy policy. The Privacy Policy contains a number of different provisions. It includes, but is not limited to these provisions:

Make sure you don't promise anything you can't deliver. Very often people make a serious mistake when they use phrases like “We do not share your personal information with third parties.” Unfortunately, purchase and sale transactions and Internet transactions as such do not leave the opportunity to avoid the exchange of this information. For example, an intermediary bank processing a customer's credit card payments must have at least some information about the customer. Such statements can be costly to you, so it is important to have the privacy policy reviewed by a legal professional.
