A privacy policy is the document that tells users what personal data you collect, why you collect it, who you share it with, and what rights they have over it. For a Telegram Bot, getting it right matters: The Telegram Bot API Terms of Service require bots that process user data to be transparent about it, and any bot that stores message content, user IDs, or chat history should link to a privacy policy. This free privacy policy generator asks a few questions about your Telegram Bot and assembles a tailored document you can copy or download in seconds.
Why your Telegram Bot needs a privacy policy
Privacy laws such as the GDPR, the CCPA, and most app-store rules require a clear, accessible privacy policy before you collect any personal data.
The Telegram Bot API Terms of Service require bots that process user data to be transparent about it, and any bot that stores message content, user IDs, or chat history should link to a privacy policy.
What a Telegram Bot privacy policy should cover
A good privacy policy for a Telegram Bot is specific to how your product works. At a minimum, address:
- What message content, usernames, and chat or user IDs your bot stores
- Whether data from group chats is treated differently from direct messages
- How long you retain logs and how users can request deletion
- What information you collect and the purpose for each type
- The third-party services and processors you use
- How users can access, correct, or delete their data
- A contact address for privacy questions
