Google Doesn't Care If You Copy Legal Disclaimers & Privacy Policies

Google Legal

Google's John Mueller responded that it's no problem for Google if you copy a legal disclaimer or privacy policy you used on one of your web sites and gave it to another web site.

John responded to this question on Twitter:

I mean, think about it, do you want your legal disclaimers to rank well in Google anyway?

Most of these legal disclaimers are boilerplate types of stuff that no one reads anyway.
