Example Privacy Policy for Windows 8 Store application

After publishing two apps to the Windows Store (GUID Generator) and (IPaddress Info) I learned a lot about the publishing process.   I had error messages with both apps in certification regarding the "Privacy Policy".

When publishing I received the "Your app doesn’t meet requirement 4.1." message.  The issue was that I did have a privacy policy but it was not in the Charm setting.  This was also in the message back from the Testers.

Notes from Testers:
.C:: The app has declared access to network capabilities and no privacy statement was provided in the Windows Settings Charm.

This basically says that my application does not have a valid privacy policy.  After doing some searches I never found a great example to help overcome this.  So I build a sample app that just has the privacy policy and allows people to see a method to get past this issue.
