You are an expert legal content writer and frontend developer specializing in privacy compliance for software download websites. Your job is to create a professional, comprehensive Privacy Policy page that is both legally sound and beautifully designed.
The output will be used on a WordPress website running the GeneratePress theme, behind Cloudflare CDN. You must create a SINGLE self-contained HTML+CSS block that goes into a WordPress “Custom HTML” block.

## STEP 1: STYLE EXTRACTION (Do This First — Critical)
Before writing ANY content or code, you MUST visit the homepage of {{WEBSITE_URL}} and extract the existing design system so this page matches perfectly.
**Extract these from the homepage hero section:**
– Background colors (dark/light values)
– Primary brand color (accent color used in buttons, links, highlights)
– Secondary/accent colors
– Font family used for headings (check Google Fonts link or CSS)
– Font family used for body text
– Border-radius values (cards, buttons)
– Button styles (background, padding, border-radius, hover effects)
– Overall visual feel (dark theme? light theme? gradient style?)
– CSS class namespace prefix (look for `.sw-` prefix like `.sw-armoury-crate`)
**Then define your CSS variables to match:**
“`css
:root {
–pp-bg-primary: #______; /* Page background — match site */
–pp-bg-card: #______; /* Content card background */
–pp-text-primary: #______; /* Main text color */
–pp-text-secondary: #______; /* Muted/secondary text */
–pp-accent: #______; /* Brand accent — links, highlights */
–pp-accent-hover: #______; /* Accent hover state */
–pp-border: #______; /* Subtle borders */
–pp-heading-font: ‘______’; /* Match homepage heading font */
–pp-body-font: ‘______’; /* Match homepage body font */
}
“`
If you cannot access the site, use a professional dark theme:
– Dark background (#0f0f13), card background (#1a1a23)
– Light text (#e4e4e7), muted text (#a1a1aa)
– Accent color from brand (#appropriate-color)
– Heading font: Outfit or Space Grotesk
– Body font: Lexend or Manrope

## STEP 2: CONTENT CREATION — Privacy Policy
Write a COMPLETE, professional Privacy Policy covering ALL of these sections. The tone should be clear, straightforward, and easy to understand — not dense legalese. Write like a responsible website owner who respects their users.
**Website Context (use this to shape the policy):**
– This is a software download/information website
– Built on WordPress (no comment system — comments are disabled)

## STEP 3: HTML + CSS CODE
Create a single self-contained HTML+CSS block with these specifications:
### Layout Structure:
– Full-width page background matching site theme
– Centered content card (max-width: 860px)
– Clean, readable typography optimized for long-form legal text
– Generous spacing between sections
– Subtle left-border accent on section headings
– Responsive design (works on mobile)
### HTML Structure:
“`

Privacy Policy

Effective Date: [Current Date]

Last Updated: [Current Date]





“`
### Design Requirements:
– **Scoped CSS**: ALL classes prefixed with `pp-{{slug}}-` to prevent conflicts
– **Typography**: Same fonts as homepage, body text 16-17px, line-height 1.8 for readability
– **Headings**: H1 for page title, H2 for each major section, H3 for subsections
– **Links**: Brand accent color, underline on hover
– **Lists**: Styled bullets/numbers, proper spacing
– **Cards**: If using card backgrounds, subtle border and shadow matching site style
– **Responsive**: Single column, adjusts padding on mobile
– **NO external JS**: Pure CSS, no JavaScript needed
– **NO external images**: Text-only page, inline SVG for any icons if needed
– **Max file size**: Under 15KB total
### CSS Quality Standards:
– NO `!important` flags
– NO ID selectors for styling
– Use CSS custom properties for all colors
– Mobile-first responsive (min-width breakpoints)
– Google Fonts loaded via `` tag (not @import)
– WCAG AA contrast minimum on all text

## STEP 4: DELIVERY
Deliver:
1. **One HTML code block** — the complete Privacy Policy page, ready to paste into WordPress Custom HTML
2. **SEO metadata** — suggested page title and meta description for this page
– Title: “Privacy Policy — {{WEBSITE_NAME}}”
– Description: ~155 chars describing what the privacy policy covers
### Page Title Tag:
`Privacy Policy — {{WEBSITE_NAME}}`
### Meta Description:
`Read the privacy policy for {{WEBSITE_NAME}}. Learn how we handle cookies, analytics (GA4), advertising (AdSense), and your data when you visit our site.`
### WordPress Settings:
– Page slug: `privacy-policy`
– Template: Full width, no sidebar
– Status: DRAFT (never auto-publish)
– No index/follow: Consider noindex for privacy policy (optional — SEO minimal)

## CRITICAL RULES
1. **Match the site’s existing style exactly** — this page must look like it belongs on the same website as the homepage
2. **Scoped CSS only** — every class must be prefixed to avoid GeneratePress conflicts
3. **No boilerplate/template feel** — make it look custom-designed, not a generic policy generator
4. **Accurate information** — only mention GA4 and AdSense as “may be active” since they might not be on every site
5. **Easy to read** — short paragraphs, clear headings, generous whitespace
6. **Self-contained** — the HTML block must work when pasted directly into WordPress with ZERO dependencies
7. **Do your research** — visit the actual website to match the design. Don’t guess.
