A big part of the reason no one reads them is because they're a giant legal document. If you want to inform your users you could say something like "Hey this is what kind of data we collect and what kinds of people we share it with" it doesn't cover everything but it gives people a much better idea of what they are actually agreeing to
- SamuelAdams 3y ago> it doesn't cover everything Therein lies the rub then. People can still claim they're "lied to" because there was no written document explaining something a particular service did. Which brings me back to my original argument, some of OP's claims are extremely difficult to actually implement.
- mitt_romney_12 3y agoYou're right that it's tough completely cover everything but a code of ethics isn't supposed to be a set of laws you follow to the letter but more a set of guidelines for how you should try and act. I think almost everyone would agree that a quick, plain English, summary is more honest to customers than a giant legal document. If you have to leave out some technical details for space that isn't "lying to your customers" but intentionally trying to cover up what you're doing with customer data definitely is.
