ONLINE GDPR COMPLIANCE

GDPR compliance means ensuring your website or business handles personal data lawfully, transparently and securely.

Here’s how our Online Compliance Tool helps you stay compliant:

• Provides guidance for compliance with EU GDPR, UK GDPR, US CCPA and CH FADP
• Generates valid, up-to-date legal documents written by expert lawyers
• Creates tailored clauses that match your website’s unique data collection and processing needs

With our tool, you can meet global privacy standards confidently and have peace of mind knowing your policies are always current.

Any activity involving the handling of user data requires a policy that clearly explains how information is used and protected.

Common examples include:

• Collecting data through website forms, newsletters, or account registrations
• Using tracking cookies or analytics tools that store user information
• Sharing data with third parties for marketing or performance purposes

If your site processes personal data in any of these ways, you must have a privacy and cookie policy in place to remain compliant.

Failing to comply with data protection laws can have serious implications for your business.

The main risks include:

• Financial penalties, with fines of up to €20 million or 4% of global turnover
• Legal action from data subjects or regulators
• Reputational damage, leading to loss of customer trust and brand credibility

Staying compliant helps you avoid costly consequences and demonstrates your commitment to responsible data handling.

To meet your responsibilities effectively:

• Maintain clear records of data processing activities and legal bases for processing
• Implement transparent privacy policies using tools
• Be prepared to demonstrate compliance to regulators by keeping documentation and consent logs up to date

With the right processes and documentation in place, you can confidently prove that your website and business adhere to GDPR requirements.
