worked out how to do my privacy policy and easy way to do privacy policy for google blogs blogspot

i have my privacy policy running now, what i did was use a blogspot address to post my privacy policy on, then on each of my blogs i went into the "layout" section of each blog, clicked on "add a gadget".

when in add a gadget click on the box 3 boxes down that says "HTML/JavaScript
Add third-party functionality or other code to your blog."

when in there put the web address of the blog you have your privacy policy on, to do this, you will have a title (add a title like privacy policy)and content box you privacy policy address will go in the content box, you need to move your cursor over the little green picture, which will then highlight the words "createlink" put your privacy policy address in there like i use the address of the privacy policy i have posted here on the first blog post.

then type into the next part "Privacy Policy" otherwise there wont be any text, to show the link.

click save and you will have the link posted to the side of your blog posts in the sidebar.

just repeat this process for your blogs.

(how to) privacy policy work in progress not easy

why doesn't google put a privacy policy into the blogs to start with, cause i am struggling to, okay i have the privacy policy and can link to it, but i don't know how to put the link into the side bar of my blogs, so have not got the privacy policy up and running fully yet, you see you need a privacy policy on blogs i keep reading everywhere.

i don't know why google just doesn't put one in place automatic like style for us poor bloggers where not techies, and that's why google made blogger then, makes it difficult with the privacy policy, i didn't really want to have to go through all my blogs and put a privacy policy at the start of the first blog post on them all, though i still think i would have to put a link on the side bar to these first posts if i did that anyway.

ive spent hours trying to work out this privacy policy thing, its not like i work in the legal profession and get payed millions, just a blogger, and privacy policy can start getting too technical.
