What is a GDPR Privacy Policy?
A Privacy Policy is a legal document that explains how you will manage the personal information you collect from website visitors and customers.
A GDPR Privacy Policy includes additional information to comply with the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
If your business has a presence in the EU, provides goods and services to EU customers or tracks users and behaviours in the EU, you need to have a GDPR Privacy Policy on your website. GDPR compliance is not optional!
Who is this GDPR Privacy Policy for?
- Business with operations in the EU
- Business that provides goods and services to EU customers
- Business with a website that targets EU customers (e.g. allows payment in euros or has a European language version other than English)
- Business with a website that collects and monitors data on users or behaviours from countries within the EU.
What is GDPR?
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is an EU legislation that aims to give EU residents more control over their personal data. Under this regulation, organisations that handle EU residents’ data must comply with data and privacy rules.
Non-compliance can result in hefty fines of up to €20 million or four per cent of annual revenues, whichever is higher.
Do I need a GDPR Privacy Policy for my Australian website?
Yes, Australian businesses of any size must have a GDPR Privacy Policy if:
- Your business has a presence in the EU
- You provide goods and services to EU customers
- You collect and monitor data on users or behaviours from countries within the EU.
It’s important to stay on the right side of EU privacy rules and avoid steep penalties for non-compliance.
A Privacy Policy also shows visitors that your website is trustworthy, and it can improve your site’s Google search ranking.
Am I legally required to have one?
Yes, if you meet any of the three conditions listed above, you must have a GDPR Privacy Policy. Not only EU businesses have to comply.

What does our template include?
Our comprehensive template covers everything you need to comply:
- Collection of personal information
- Use of personal information
- Disclosure of personal information
- Rights and control of a person’s personal information
- Security and storage of personal information
- Website cookies and third party sites
- GDPR compliance terms
- Customer rights under the GDPR
- Hosting and international data transfers
- How to make a complaint about a privacy breach
- How you can unsubscribe or opt-out

Does our GDPR Privacy Policy template include all of the essential information required?
Yes, it does.
There are certain terms and clauses which must be included to make a Privacy Policy compliant with the GDPR. Don’t worry; we have made sure our template includes all the necessary information. We have written the policy according to best practice.
What’s the difference between a normal Privacy Policy and a GDPR Privacy Policy?
A GDPR Privacy Policy contains additional information legally required under the European Union’s GDPR regulation.
This information includes:
- who your Data Controller is and contact Information
- where personal data is not collected from the individual, the source and nature of that data
- Who your Data Protection Officer is and contact information
- Whether you use data to make automated decisions
- Informing users of the 8 rights they have under the GDPR
- Whether you transfer data internationally
- Legal basis for processing data
I run an online shop – is this the only legal document I need?
No, you also need Website Terms and Conditions of Sale. You are legally required to display terms and conditions on your website under Australian Consumer Law if you’re selling online. This includes extra terms for payment, delivery, refunds, warranty and consumer guarantees.
Our Ecommerce Legal Bundle is an affordable way to grab all the other documents you will need for your online shop in one go.
Other names for a GDPR Privacy Policy
- GDPR Privacy Notice
- GDPR Privacy Statement
Where do I publish my GDPR Privacy Policy?
It is common practice for websites to place a link to their privacy policy and website terms of use in the footer of the website.
Once you have completed our template in Word, you can publish it on your website as a new page and link to it in the footer.
What are the benefits of having a GDPR Privacy Policy?
If you meet any of the conditions listed above, the main benefit is that you will be obeying EU law. Serious fines apply for breaches of the GDPR. Definitely want to avoid that!
Even if you aren’t required by law, there are still many benefits to having one anyway:
- It shows Google your website is more trustworthy and can improve your site’s search rankings
- It shows your website visitors that you will protect their personal information, giving you more credibility
- It makes your website appear more professional

AUPeace of mind
I bought the Course Creator Legal Bundle and needed to get this GDPR Privacy Policy as an addition to make sure I was covered for anyone in the EU doing my courses. The Bundle included a privacy policy but not one that's GDPR compliant so I had to add this as an extra purchase. Everything was very easy to buy with immediate delivery. The documents are easy to edit with the help of good instructions and I was able to add the legals quickly to my site. I now have peace of mind that my sites are covered and compliant all round. Thank you for your products and service! I'm really happy.
AUPeace of Mind
I bought the GDPR template on recommendation from a friend who introduced me to the site. It was so quick, easy and I think fair price. I knew what I had received was trustworthy and I implemented it quickly. Will be back if I need anything else.
AUEasy to understand privacy policy
I purchased the GDPR Privacy Policy in addition to the Virtual Assistant bundle (which had a privacy policy included) just to cover my bases. The template is simple to customise and the instructions provided are easy to understand. The only difference between the standard and GDPR versions that I could tell was 1 or 2 sections that referred to GDPR specific privacy requirements. In hindsight I didn't need both as the majority of my customer base isn't located in the EU, but I'm still happy I have this version. My only complaint/suggestion would be that when purchasing a bundle that there is the option to select with a standard or GDPR privacy policy, instead of getting 2 almost identical documents.
