how to assess website privacy policies for compliance using an api without manual review

problem

completely manual audits of website privacy policies are time-consuming and prone to oversight. developers and compliance teams need a faster way to gauge if sites meet gdpr or ccpa standards.

solution

with the privacy-risk-score api, you can fetch and analyze privacy disclosures from any domain programmatically. just send a request:



curl -s https://privacy-risk-score.apimesh.xyz/check?domain=example.com


this returns a structured JSON indicating compliance signals, data sharing practices, and privacy disclosures.

## how it works
it retrieves the privacy policy from the site's public URL, then processes the content using natural language processing to identify relevant signals—such as law references, disclosures, and data handling mentions. it compiles a composite score and report summary.

## try it
you can test the api with a free preview at https://privacy-risk-score.apimesh.xyz/preview, or check out the full endpoint for just $0.005 per call. integrate into your onboarding, audit, or compliance checks easily.
