Privacy and cookies
Privacy and cookie compliance
A proper privacy policy and cookie consent for your website, written in plain English for your business.
Most small business websites are missing this
If your website has a contact form, takes bookings or uses analytics, UK data protection law expects you to tell visitors what you collect and why. Many small business websites have no privacy policy, or a generic one that does not match what the site actually does.
What we do
- Check what your website collects: forms, bookings, analytics, maps, social media feeds and anything else that uses personal data or cookies.
- Write a clear privacy policy that matches your website and business, in plain English.
- Add a cookie consent banner so analytics and other optional cookies only run when visitors agree.
- Secure your forms and make sure enquiries are stored and sent safely.
- Link it all up in your website footer and next to your forms.
We are web specialists, not lawyers. For complex situations we recommend checking with a legal adviser, but for most small business websites this covers what is needed.

Frequently asked questions
Does my website need a privacy policy?
If it collects any personal information, such as through a contact form, or uses analytics cookies, then yes.
Do I need a cookie banner?
If your website uses non-essential cookies such as Google Analytics or advertising, a consent banner is the safest way to follow UK rules.
Will a cookie banner annoy my visitors?
We keep it small, clear and easy to accept or decline, and it only appears once.
