The GDPR Law

Our plugin helps you with GDPR compliance whereby you can apply a shortcode to a page/post and we will provide you with a privacy policy "tailored" to your company/web site. Once you have purchased an api key, we will work with you over email to get your privacy policy GDPR compliant. You will never have to edit the privacy policy yourself or keep generating templates, we will be on hand to make the changes for you and the changes are sent through to your web site through our plugin.
