untill when we must put privacy policy in our site and not to be banned?

 

until when?

when you start to collect personal data and info, you should have those privacy policy or else people can sue you over not declaring the policy.

 

I think you are talking about the new privacy policy that is required by the new policy changes. I would suggest getting those up as soon as possible. I'm sure Google would give you some lee-way, but the sooner the better. I plan on doing it today.

 

thanks...
yes...that i mean...
so, sooner the better.....

 

I am sure they will give publishers who had sites up before this, time enough (maybe a couple of weeks - months?) before they start sending out notices. I doubt they would ban anyone over this...

 

You don't have to accept the new TOS until may, so I assume it will be around then it comes into play.

 

i accept it when it appear when login...but have not privacy policy in my site yet ..
i wish google give us good time...
i wish also not to be baannnnned if not make privacy policy soon.

 

I'm sure they wouldn't ban you for this right away. They'd probably give you a warning first, but still I think it's best to do it as quickly as possible to stay on Google's good side.

 

Use my one if you dont already have one:

as you said .. sooner the better..
but why google not give us exact time at which they will be serious about our Privacy Policy?

 

This is what I have put together.

If you want to use it, go ahead. If you have any suggestions or comments about it, let me know.

 

Since When? since google updated their policies. You should put is as early as you can though they don't have any deadline.

 

Meh, I'm not going to bother with it at all. If I get a warning (or banned haha) I'll let you guys know.

 

New terms & conditions will apply from 31st May so we have time for it.

 

as you accept there new privacy policy you need to put privacy policy on your site as soon as possible

 

Actually you have up until May 31 to accept the terms. They take effect as soon as you accept them.

 

what about blogspot blogs?or other blog services?

 

Posting a privacy policy is easy so why not do it and keep the Google Gods happy? Just grab an existing one and copy-paste with minor modifications.

 

here is how I set my Privacy Policy. I think this is more than OK:
