i4cI would put in on the page as part of this:
Index Rules Register Login Recent Posts Privacy Policy
In the interim, if that's going to take a while to achieve, put it up on your rules page. The privacy policy isn't just there to keep Google happy, its also to keep you safe regardless of whether you use Adsense or not and not telling people what info (if any) you collect about them could potentially put you in an actionable position. (Not being alarmist :)
Most people who want to find out about your privacy policy (and surprisingly many do) would expect to locate it under a 'Privacy Policy' heading rather than a 'Rules' heading so it would be best practise to create a Privacy Policy page as soon as you can, but in the meantime satisfy Google's requirement that you must have the text detailed above (before you publish Adsense) in your rules page.
Finally, the text provided above covers Google's requirements, but you should also list in the policy any other data you collect and how you use it.

i4cYes you can copy and paste it which is why it was provided :) It can go on rules for your site but better on a page called 'privacy policy' and linked to any page with Adsense on. Many people have the privacy policy as a link at the footer of each page, alongside (c) info etc.

csparkerThank you Modest!
A link at the footer would mean my being able to do html? I'm useless with it.
If I give you my web site addy could you take a look and make suggestion where it would work best for both me and google?
Each category has topics and I could post a topic with heading "Private Policy" then close it and make a sticky with it...would that do?
A sticky keeps it at the top of the page forever....I could post it under "New Here - Please Read"

i4cPost ahead, and will advise what to do if I'm familiar with your site construction. After I've posted 'got it' edit and delete your post with your url here.
