Privacy and cookie policy for a website (EC003)

If your business has a website you will probably use to it collect and store information from people who visit it, either by asking for it directly or by putting a cookie on their web browser.

Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) you need to tell people about the information you hold, including how you will use it and for what purpose. You also need to tell them about their privacy rights and how the law protects them. You can use this privacy notice to do this (it is sometimes also known as a privacy policy or privacy statement).

If your website does not have anywhere for users to enter information and does not use cookies, then you do not need this document.

You should also use our 'Terms of use for a website' (EC005), which govern use of your website generally. If you make sales (i.e. take payments) via your website, you may also need our 'Terms and conditions for selling consumer goods or services on a website' (EC004).
