You are required to have a Privacy Policy page on your website to run lead ads on Facebook or Instagram. A privacy policy informs people what you will do with their information and can help build trust with your prospective and current customers. People may be more likely to share information with you based on the information outlined in your policy. Your privacy policy must be accurate and honest.
When you choose Generate Leads as your ad goal, you will need to provide a Privacy Policy URL from your website in the privacy policy section. Your privacy policy cannot link directly to a PDF file, image or direct download. You can use an existing Privacy Policy URL you already have for your business or service. You don’t have to create a custom privacy policy for our lead ads.
Where Do I Find My Privacy Policy?
Most Privacy Policies can be found as a page or link in the footer of your website. To find if you have one, scroll to the bottom of your website home page and look for a link that says "Privacy Policy". Additionally, if you have access to the back end of your website, you can search existing pages of your website for a Privacy Policy page.
I Don't Have A Privacy Policy
Facebook requires a Privacy Policy when running lead-generation campaigns. If you are going to be collecting any information from leads, you will need a Privacy Policy in order to purchase your ad.
Below the Legal Disclaimer and Disclosure, we have provided a Privacy Policy template with filler text for you to use. Before use, you must read the following "Legal Disclaimer and Disclosure" in its entirety.
