The premise Privacy policies are mostly boilerplate — until they're not. AI can produce a structurally correct draft fast; the risk is shipping language that doesn't match what your product actually does.
What AI does well here Map your data flows to the standard policy sections Generate jurisdiction-specific clauses (GDPR, CCPA, COPPA) Translate engineering reality into legally-cautious language Spot inconsistencies between the policy and your cookie banner Prompt template: data-flow grounded draft List every type of data you collect, why, and where it's stored. Ask: 'Draft a privacy policy that matches this exact data flow. Flag any standard section where I haven't given you data — don't fill it in with assumptions.' Unflagged 'assumed' content is where compliance trouble starts. What AI cannot do Know what data your app actually collects (you have to tell it) Catch jurisdictional filings or registration requirements Replace privacy counsel for any product handling sensitive data Don't ship a policy that doesn't match the product Regulators care less about the eloquence of your policy and more about whether your behavior matches it. If AI writes 'we don't sell user data' and your ad pixel does the moral equivalent, the policy is worse than nothing.
