How to Link Your Privacy Policy in GoHighLevel Forms
When collecting personal data in ClickUp or any CRM, you must clearly show users how their information will be handled. In GoHighLevel, you can easily add a privacy policy link to your forms and surveys so contacts understand your data practices before submitting their details.
This guide walks you through the exact steps to link a privacy policy when collecting personal data inside GoHighLevel, using the native form and survey builder tools.
Why Add a Privacy Policy Link in GoHighLevel
Adding a privacy policy link in GoHighLevel forms and surveys helps you:
- Increase transparency about how you store and process data
- Support compliance efforts with data protection regulations
- Build trust and credibility with new leads and customers
- Reduce confusion about consent when users submit their information
GoHighLevel lets you include a clear privacy policy link directly on the form, so visitors can review it before they click the submit button.
Where to Link Your Privacy Policy in GoHighLevel
You can link your privacy policy in multiple places in GoHighLevel, but the most common and effective locations are:
- Lead capture forms on funnels and websites
- Surveys used for research or onboarding
- Popups and embedded forms on external sites
The method described here focuses on forms and surveys created inside the GoHighLevel builder.
Prepare Your Privacy Policy URL Before You Start
Before editing your form in GoHighLevel, make sure you have:
- A publicly accessible privacy policy page on your website
- The full URL (including
https://) of your privacy policy - Permission to use that policy if it is not hosted on your own domain
You will paste this URL into a text element inside your GoHighLevel form or survey.
Step-by-Step: Link Your Privacy Policy in GoHighLevel Forms
Follow these steps to add a clickable privacy policy link to a form using the GoHighLevel form builder.
Step 1: Open the Form Builder in GoHighLevel
- Log in to your GoHighLevel account.
- From the left-hand menu, navigate to Sites.
- Click Forms (or Form Builder, depending on your interface).
- Select the form where you want to display the privacy policy link, or click New Form to create a new one.
Step 2: Add a Text Element for the Privacy Policy
- Inside the GoHighLevel form builder, locate the Text element in the elements panel.
- Drag and drop the Text element to the desired position on your form.
- Place it near the submit button so users see it before submitting their information.
You can also use a small-font text style to keep the design clean while still making the link visible.
Step 3: Write Your Privacy Policy Text
In the text element on your GoHighLevel form, add a short, clear sentence that references your privacy policy. Examples:
- “By submitting this form, you agree to our Privacy Policy.”
- “Your information is protected. Read our Privacy Policy.”
Next, you will convert the words “Privacy Policy” into a clickable link.
Step 4: Insert the Privacy Policy Link in GoHighLevel
- Highlight the text where you want the link to appear (for example, “Privacy Policy”).
- In the text editor toolbar, click the link icon.
- Paste your full privacy policy URL into the link field.
- Confirm and apply the changes.
The highlighted text will now become a clickable hyperlink that opens your privacy policy in the browser.
Step 5: Save and Publish Your GoHighLevel Form
- Click Save in the upper-right corner of the GoHighLevel form builder.
- Use the Preview option to test your form.
- Click the privacy policy text to confirm it opens the correct URL.
- Embed or add the form to your funnel, website, or landing page as usual.
Once live, every visitor will see a clear privacy policy link right next to your contact fields.
