Updated over 6 months ago

Termly provides three ways to embed a policy on your GoDaddy website.

Your options include:

  • HTML format: Pasting static HTML directly to your website

  • URL: Linking to a Termly-hosted URL (available for Pro+ users)

  • Code snippet: Embedding the policy on your page using a code snippet (available for Pro+ users)

HTML or Code Snippet

Follow these steps to add your policy using HTML or a code snippet:

  1. Log in to your GoDaddy account.

  2. Click into your website or click Manage next to your website under the Websites + Marketing section.

  3. Open the website builder by either clicking Edit Website from your website dashboard or by clicking Website from the top navigation menu, then Edit Site.

  4. Click + (Add Page) in the Website menu on the right side, then click New Page.

  5. Select the Blank template and click Create Page.

  6. Title your page, e.g., “Privacy Policy.”

  7. Toggle Show in Navigation and/or Show in Footer to add this policy page to your main navigation or footer. Policies are often found in a site’s footer.

  8. Click Done at the top of the right-side menu to save the page title and display settings.

  9. Add a section to your new page by clicking Add Section.

  10. Search for the HTML section and click Add.

Using the code snippet ensures your policies are updated automatically when you publish changes. If you use the HTML format, you will need to re-embed your policy whenever you publish changes.
