What can I do about a privacy url?

Android

Android Problem Overview

I am trying to put my android app on the market and the last thing I need is a privacy url. The problem is I don't have a website. I just created this app as my first project ever. Is there something I can do to get around this? Can I use a blog site or a facebook page or twitter page? I would really not have to pay for a website and I don't have the time to create my own website right now. I was just hoping to put my app up finally after all this work and I'm stuck. I looked online but cant really seem to find anything without having a website already. I can write my own but it still leaves me with the fact that I don't have a website to post it onto.

Thanks!

You can create a free site on Google Sites and create a boilerplate privacy policy if you need that too.

Solution 2 - Android

website hosting

checkout GitHub's GitHub Pages services. they host a simple static website for you for free! basic instructions:

  1. create a public repository on GitHub named [username].github.io (replace "[username]")
  2. commit an index.html file to the root of the repo.
  3. you can see your site online at http://[username].github.io/.

privacy policy

basic privacy policy template here....it'll give you a template that you can simply copy and paste and modify to fit your needs. unlike most other places that are after your money and/or personal information!!! 

even some of the free ones have you fill out your survey, and ask you for email at the last moment...annoying!

I just created a Google Doc, set its sharing to public, and put the shareable link in the privacy url. Easy. :-)

EDIT: I noticed I needed to create a new document for each app, otherwise I got the error:

> You are not allowed that domain for a privacy policy URL.

You could start a Google Groups newsgroup for your app. Post a sticky with your privacy policy and lock the thread. Provide the link to that sticky as your privacy link. Update it as needed if your policies have to change.

Easy peasy.
