What is a privacy policy?
It’s a notice to individuals setting out how you will process their personal data. It might also be called a privacy notice.
Is a privacy policy required by law?
Yes. If you process any personal data about individuals then you must tell them what you will be doing with it. It’s common to set this out in a privacy policy. This is an important legal obligation under the UK GDPR and you could be fined if you don’t comply.
How should I provide my privacy policy to individuals?
For detailed guidance about privacy policies, including how to provide them to individuals whose data you are processing, see our privacy policy guide for SMEs.
What other policies do I need on my website?
A privacy policy isn’t the only policy that you need on your website. You might also need:
- a cookie policy
- website terms of use
- terms and conditions for goods and/or services
You’ll also need to provide some basic business information, including your business’s name and address and company number if your business is a limited company.
