Free Privacy Notice Template (UK GDPR)
A plain-English website privacy notice for UK small businesses, written with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 in mind. It covers the ground a privacy notice is expected to: what personal information you collect, why, the lawful basis, how long you keep it, who you share it with and the rights people have. Every spot you need to complete is highlighted, so you work through the list and make it yours without starting from a blank page. It is a considered starting point rather than legal advice, so review the finished notice against how your business actually handles data, and take professional advice where you need to. Free to download in Word.
