PrivacyParrot: Analyze Website Privacy Policies

Protect your online presence with PrivacyParrot, a tool that scans website privacy policies for problematic clauses, providing grades and highlighting key issues.

What is PrivacyParrot?

PrivacyParrot is a web-based tool that analyzes website privacy policies to determine how well they protect user data and privacy. It uses natural language processing and machine learning algorithms to scan privacy policies and highlight potential issues or concerning clauses.

When you provide a link to a website's privacy policy, PrivacyParrot will process the text and provide a letter grade (A-F) on how privacy-friendly the policy is. It highlights sections that contain vague language, allow data sharing with third parties, or other problematic terms.

You can view an overview of what data the website collects, how they use it, and who they share it with. PrivacyParrot will flag unusual or alarming privacy practices. It also provides suggestions on how companies could improve their policies.

PrivacyParrot was created by legal experts, technologists, and academics to empower internet users to better understand website privacy protections. By scanning policies and explaining issues in plain language, it makes privacy policies more transparent so users can make informed decisions about sharing their personal data.
