[browser name] Privacy Notice
Effective [effective date]
At [company name], we believe that privacy is fundamental to a healthy internet
That’s why we build [browser name] and [second browser name], and all our products, to give you greater control over the information you share online and the information you share with us. In this Privacy Notice, we explain what data we process, how we process it, and for what purposes. Then, we explain how you can exercise choices about how we process your information.
How [company name] processes your data
To provide you with the [browser name] and [second browser name] browser
[browser names] process technical and settings data, as well as browsing history, web form data, temporary internet files, and cookies on your device to provide the core functionality of the browser, distinguish your device from others, remember and respect your settings. This means the data stays on your device unless it says otherwise in this Notice. Your browsing data is cleared from your device whenever you close your browser.
Additionally, if you choose to allow it, your precise location may be processed for location-related functionality for websites like Google Maps; this data is only accessed from your device by the website(s) you choose to enable it for — it is not sent to [company name]'s servers. You can tap the trash can icon in the toolbar at any time to delete your browsing data or update your location permissions at any time.
To provide and improve search functionality
When you perform a search, your search query, device information and location data will be processed by your default search engine (according to their applicable Privacy Notice) to provide your search results. You can also choose to enable your default search engine to provide search suggestions.
To maintain and improve performance and stability
If [browser names] (on Android) encounters an unexpected issue, the [company name] Crash Reporter will ask if you wish to send us information, which may include sites that were open at the time of the crash and other browsing data. On iOS, crash reports contain less information and are sent automatically by default; you can change your iOS settings at any time.
To improve security
We use Google’s Safe Browsing Service to protect you from malicious downloads and phishing attacks, and validate webpage and technical data with Certificate Authorities.
For some users, [browser names] route DNS requests to a resolver service that has agreed to [company name]'s strict privacy standards for resolvers. This provides added protection from privacy leaks to local networks and also from certain DNS security attacks. System logs of your DNS requests are deleted from the service within 24 hours and are only used for the purpose of DNS resolution. Learn more about DNS over HTTPS.
To understand usage of [software name] [browser name]
We collect a minimal amount of technical and interaction data in order to understand how many daily active users [browser name] has. For a technical overview of the data collected in this daily usage ping, see more detail for [browser name] on Android and [browser name] on iOS. This data is retained for no more than 25 months, and you can opt out of sending the Daily Usage Ping in your data collection settings at any time. [second browser name] does not collect data on daily active users by default, but [second browser name] users can opt in to sending it in their data collection settings.

Templates in our curated library are professionally drafted for US or UK law. The wider library comes from the GitLaw community and public sources - a solid starting point, but check any template fits your situation before you rely on it.
Mostly US and UK law. Some templates use general commercial terms that work across jurisdictions, and many note which law they're written for.
It depends on the situation. Templates work well for routine business agreements. For anything involving significant money, complex IP, employment, or areas you're unsure about, it's worth getting professional advice before you sign. GitLaw provides templates and tools, not legal advice.
Open any template in GitLaw and describe the change you want in the chat — 'make clause 4 mutual' or 'add a 30-day notice period', for example. GitLaw drafts the revised language and shows it as a suggested edit. You accept, reject, or keep editing from there.
Yes. Upload a Word, PDF, or Markdown file and GitLaw will open it in the editor. You can review, edit, or chat with GitLaw about it the same way you would with any template from the library.
