Is Your Website’s Privacy Policy Actually Protecting You — Or Putting You at Risk? (2025/602)

Think a privacy policy is just a checkbox? Think again. In this episode, Charly breaks down why just having a privacy policy isn't enough to keep your business safe.

Many countries now legally require specific details in your policy — and skipping them can cost you millions. But beyond avoiding fines, a solid privacy policy builds customer trust, protects your business, and is often required by third-party services.

📌 In this episode, you’ll learn:

✅ Why “boilerplate” privacy policies don’t cut it anymore

✅ What international laws like GDPR, CCPA, and Australia’s Privacy Act require

✅ How your privacy policy protects your business from complaints and lawsuits

✅ Which platforms (like Stripe and PayPal) require a published policy
