How can I get the privacy policy page?
How can I get the privacy policy page?
After the update regarding the GDPR, WordPress now has an option named "Privacy Policy" under the settings, which you can use a page to be used as your privacy policy page.
How can I get the ID or the permalink for this page to use in my theme or plugin?

These functions are available since 4.9.6 for the privacy policy url and link:
get_privacy_policy_url
privacy_policy_url
get_the_privacy_policy_link()
the_privacy_policy_link
the_privacy_policy_link()
get_the_privacy_policy_link()
See ticket #43850
WordPress stores the page id for the privacy policy page in the options table. To get the value, you can use:
options
$privacy_policy_page = get_option( 'wp_page_for_privacy_policy' );
if( $privacy_policy_page )
$permalink = esc_url( get_permalink( $privacy_policy_page ) );
The $privacy_policy_page variable holds the ID of the privacy policy page.
$privacy_policy_page
