Keeping your website’s Privacy Policy up to date can be difficult as privacy regulations evolve. HostArmada customers can now access Termageddon’s website policy generator for $99/year, alongside a free Privacy Scan tool that helps identify potential privacy concerns.

Running a website comes with plenty of responsibilities. You need reliable hosting, strong security, fast loading speeds, and a great experience for your visitors. But there is another responsibility that is easy to overlook: protecting your visitors’ privacy and making sure your website policies reflect how your business handles their data.

Failing to meet applicable privacy requirements can lead to costly fines and lawsuits, even for small businesses.

If your website uses contact forms, analytics, cookies, newsletter subscriptions, or online payments, you may be collecting personal information. Depending on your business, your visitors, and where you operate, privacy laws may require you to explain what information you collect, how you use it, and who you share it with.

The challenge? Privacy regulations keep changing, and most website owners don’t have the time, legal expertise, nor budget to keep up.

That’s why we’re excited to announce our partnership with Termageddon, a service that helps website owners create and maintain essential legal policies.

HostArmada customers can now get Termageddon for just $99/year, alongside access to our new, completely free Privacy Scan tool.

Here’s how these two additions can help you take better care of your website’s privacy requirements.

Website Privacy Compliance Is Getting More Complicated

A few years ago, many website owners gave their Privacy Policy little thought. Some copied one from another website, others used a free online template, and many simply launched their websites without one.

Today, that approach can create unnecessary legal risks.

Privacy regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act, establish requirements for businesses that handle personal information.

And these are just two examples. Termageddon currently tracks more than 120 website-related laws, rules, and regulations, covering everything from data privacy to consumer protection and industry-specific disclosure requirements. While not every law applies to every website, figuring out which ones apply to yours can be a challenge in itself.

The difficulty goes beyond knowing which laws exist. Website owners must also determine:

• Which privacy regulations apply to their business.
• What information their Privacy Policy must disclose.
• Whether their website requires cookie consent mechanisms.
• How third-party services embedded on their own website collect or process visitor information.
• When their existing policies need to be updated.

Even a small business website can use several services that process personal information, including Google Analytics, advertising pixels, payment processors, and email marketing platforms.

Understanding how all these services interact with privacy laws isn’t always straightforward.

Privacy-Related Lawsuits Are Becoming a Real Concern

The consequences of overlooking privacy requirements are not limited to regulatory fines.

In the United States, businesses have faced a growing wave of lawsuits and legal demand letters related to website tracking technologies.

One particularly concerning example involves the California Invasion of Privacy Act (CIPA), a law originally enacted in 1967 to address unlawful interception of communications.

More recently, plaintiffs have used CIPA to challenge common website technologies, including analytics tools, advertising pixels, chat widgets, and search forms.

According to a July 2026 analysis by law firm Ward and Smith, businesses across the United States have received demand letters and lawsuits alleging that these technologies violate CIPA.

The report highlights two particularly important concerns.

First, CIPA provides for statutory damages commonly cited at $5,000 per violation. Second, some claims argue that individual website interactions can constitute separate violations, potentially increasing the amounts demanded.

The exact number of cases is difficult to establish, but Ward and Smith reports that this type of litigation has increased sharply since 2023. Courts have reached differing conclusions about some of these legal theories, meaning that not every claim is legally justified.

Consider what this means for a small business owner. A website might use a search bar, contact form, or analytics integration without realizing that its data-handling practices could become the subject of a legal dispute.

Even when a claim is unsuccessful, responding to it can consume valuable time and resources.

Having accurate website policies is an important part of reducing privacy-related risks, although policies alone cannot resolve every compliance issue or prevent someone from filing a lawsuit.

Hiring a Privacy Attorney Is an Option, but What About the Cost?

Consulting a qualified privacy attorney can be particularly valuable when your business processes sensitive information, operates internationally, or has complex regulatory obligations.

A qualified attorney can evaluate your business, determine which regulations apply, and draft legal documents tailored to your website.

For businesses with complex operations or sensitive data-processing activities, professional legal advice may be essential.

However, hiring an attorney also means accounting for legal fees, consultations, and potential future revisions.

And creating the policies is only the beginning.

Your business might introduce a new payment processor, start using an advertising platform, or expand into a new market. Meanwhile, new privacy laws may come into effect, and existing regulations may change.

Each of these developments could require another review of your website’s policies.

For a new website owner, freelancer, or small business with a limited budget, maintaining this process can become expensive.

But what if you could generate policies tailored to your business and have them updated as privacy laws evolve, without paying for repeated manual revisions?

That’s exactly the problem Termageddon was created to address.

Introducing Termageddon: Website Policies That Keep Up With Privacy Laws

Termageddon is a website policy and consent generator designed to help businesses create essential legal documents and keep them current as privacy regulations change.

Unlike static policy templates that remain unchanged after you download them, Termageddon provides automatically updating policies backed by ongoing privacy law monitoring.

The service guides you through a questionnaire about your business, website, and data collection practices. Based on your answers, it generates policies that reflect the information you provide and the applicable requirements supported by the platform.

Once those policies are installed on your website using Termageddon’s embed code, supported legal updates can be delivered automatically. Termageddon will notify you by email when laws change, let you know if any new questions need to be answered, and best of all, will release new disclosure requirements automatically to your policy pages.

This means you don’t have to manually rewrite your policies every time a relevant privacy regulation changes.

What Does Termageddon Include?

A Termageddon license provides access to several policy generators and privacy management tools, including:

• Privacy Policy Generator. Creates a policy explaining how your website collects, uses, and shares personal information, based on your answers and the applicable supported laws.
• Terms and Conditions Generator. Helps establish rules for using your website, clarify responsibilities, and address important conditions governing your services.
• Cookie Policy Generator and Cookie Consent Solution. Helps explain cookie usage and provides tools for managing visitor consent where required.
• Disclaimer Generator. Helps communicate relevant limitations and disclosures regarding the information, products, or services offered through your website.
• End User License Agreement (EULA) Generator. Creates agreements that define how users may access or use software or applications.
• Automatic Policy Updates and Notifications. Monitors supported legal developments, updates applicable policy language, and notifies you when additional information or action is required.

Not every website needs every document, and the availability of specific policies depends on your business’s jurisdiction. With Termageddon, you’re getting coverage of more than 120 website-related laws, rules, and regulations, helping businesses identify relevant policy disclosure requirements.

You can explore the full range of tools on the official Termageddon website.

How Do Automatic Policy Updates Work?

This is one of the most valuable features of Termageddon.

Traditional website policy generators often give you a document to download and publish. From that moment, keeping it updated becomes your responsibility.

Termageddon approaches the process differently.

Its team monitors developments in privacy legislation, regulatory guidance, and relevant legal decisions. When these developments require changes to supported policies, Termageddon will notify you by email, let you know if any new questions are available within your license, and can update the policy content right on your website (delivered through its embed code).

For example, if a new privacy law introduces additional disclosure requirements, Termageddon can adjust the relevant policy language. If more information is needed about your business, you may receive a notification asking you to answer additional questions.

Of course, you still need to keep your business information accurate and make sure your website’s actual data practices match what its policies say.

However, the ongoing task of tracking legal changes and maintaining policy language becomes significantly more manageable.

Who Is Behind Termageddon, and Can You Trust It?

When it comes to website privacy and legal policies, expertise matters.

Termageddon isn’t simply a collection of generic legal templates. It was founded in 2016 by Donata Stroink-Skillrud and Hans Skillrud, who combined their backgrounds in privacy law and website development to create a more accessible solution.

Donata Stroink-Skillrud, Co-Founder and President

Donata is a licensed attorney and Certified Information Privacy Professional (CIPP). She also serves as chair of the American Bar Association’s ePrivacy Committee.

Her role at Termageddon includes overseeing operations and the legal framework behind its policy generation technology.

Hans Skillrud, Co-Founder and Vice President

Hans brings practical experience from running a web design agency in Chicago. At Termageddon, he focuses on business development, partnerships, and educating website professionals about privacy requirements.

Their combined experience addresses two sides of a common challenge: understanding privacy legislation and making its requirements more accessible to everyday website owners.

Termageddon also identifies itself as the longest-running Privacy Policy generator listed as a technology vendor by the International Association of Privacy Professionals (IAPP).

These professional credentials, together with Termageddon’s focus on ongoing legal updates, provide useful reasons to consider the service for your website.

It’s important to understand that Termageddon is not a law firm, and using the service does not establish an attorney-client relationship or guarantee legal compliance. Termageddon is a tool and should not be considered a replacement for receiving legal advice from a licensed attorney.

How HostArmada Is Helping Customers Protect Their Websites’ Privacy

At HostArmada, we believe that having a successful website involves more than choosing the right hosting plan.

Website owners also need access to tools that help them understand potential risks and manage their online presence with confidence.

That’s why we’re introducing two new additions to our customer experience: the free Privacy Scan tool and Termageddon at a special partner price of $99/year.

1. Free Privacy Scan: Find Potential Privacy Issues on Your Website

Before you can address potential privacy concerns, it helps to understand what may be happening on your specific website.

Our new Privacy Scan tool makes that first step easier.

Available free of charge through the HostArmada Client Area, our Privacy Scan analyzes your website and generates a detailed privacy compliance report highlighting potential concerns that may require your attention.

Instead of guessing whether your website has privacy-related issues, you can start with a report that helps you identify areas worth reviewing.

Here’s how to access it:

1. Log in to your HostArmada Client Area.
2. Navigate to the Tools section in the left sidebar. Select Privacy Scan.
3. Click on the Scan a Website button. 

4. Enter the website you want to analyze and click Start Scan. This will initiate the scan.

5. Now you can either wait for the scan to finish or click Email me when ready to receive the report in your mailbox once it’s complete.

6. Review your results and download the generated report.

We suggest you try Privacy Scan yourself for free. See what our tool can identify and get a clearer picture of potential privacy compliance concerns on your website.

Note: Privacy Scan is intended as an informational assessment rather than a complete legal audit. Automated scans cannot establish whether a website fully complies with every applicable privacy law.

However, the report can give you a practical starting point for reviewing your website’s privacy practices and deciding what needs attention.

2. Termageddon for Only $99/Year: Exclusive HostArmada Pricing

We also wanted to make it more affordable for our customers to maintain their website policies.

Through our partnership with Termageddon, HostArmada customers can purchase a Termageddon license for just $99/year.

For comparison, Termageddon currently advertises its annual license at $119 when purchased directly through its website. That means HostArmada customers save $20 per year through our partnership.

You can find Termageddon in the Addon Boosters section when ordering a HostArmada hosting service or purchase it separately through the Addon Boosters page in our Client Area.

Once purchased, Termageddon will appear in your list of services, making it easy to access its management page whenever needed.

3. Our Support Team Can Help You Install Your Policies

We understand that generating legal policies is one thing, but adding them to your website might raise additional questions.

That’s where the HostArmada support team comes in.

After purchasing Termageddon, you’ll receive an email containing instructions for getting started. You’ll then complete a questionnaire about your website and business to generate your policies.

Once your documents are ready, Termageddon will provide the integration instructions and embed codes you need to display them on your website.

If you need help with the technical implementation, our support team is here to assist.

We can help you add the generated policies to your hosted website, review integration problems, and investigate technical issues that might prevent the policies from displaying correctly.

Whether you’re operating a WordPress blog, a business website, or an online store, you don’t have to figure out the technical side entirely on your own.

Our assistance covers the technical integration of the generated policies. Legal review, determining which laws apply, and ensuring your website’s data-handling practices comply with those laws remain outside the scope of hosting support.

How to Get Started With Termageddon at HostArmada

Getting started requires just a few steps.

1. Get started for free – Check your website with the Privacy Scan tool. Log in to your Client Area, open Tools, and run your free privacy scan to identify potential concerns.
