Example of basic Privacy Policy and Conditions of Use?

I keep finding websites that say "free" generator....but then they want your credit card number.

I've been searching the forum but can't seem to find anything either.

Are there any links to templates anyone can share? the most common basic templates?
Or where I can get more info if its not as easy as it used to be.

Thanks.
