GDPR privacy policy - any free templates ?

artichoke

Hi all

I am trying to go about the whole GDPR compliance thing in the most affordable way. I can see some companies selling privacy policies + kits for £££££ and others for annual subscriptions of $27

I am a small business - i teach languages online...

I understand what i need to do re my mailing list but I am not looking for a template for a privacy policy.

Does anyone know if there is a free template I can use anywhere?

thanks

The ICO website has a guide to the sections you need. It's quite straightforward.

We're finding this a bit of a nightmare to work out what should be done.

Two Home Tutors here, and we guess most of the advice is not geared towards people like us....

Our interpretation is, as long as you specify what information you hold, where it's held
and why, you should comply.


There's a post via Google that we've used as a guide gdpr-a-piano-teacher-perspective.pdf.


One thorny issue is whether a registration with the ICO is required. (Annual fee!)


I feel a live chat with the ICO is required on the morrow! If they're not busy.....

ICO registration - they have a set of questions, I believe. If all you're storing is name and contact details you're probably OK not registering. If you're keeping details of anything more 'personal' - age / gender / disability / personal life preferences - you're probably not.

But that's my quick reading of it for my own situation - where all we're storing is name and contact details!

Just to update the above, I found some more comprehensive information which I've posted here.
