Explicitly describe the lawful bases for data processing (consent, contract, legitimate interest, legal obligation) as required under GDPR Articles 6–7.

2. User Rights

Include all relevant rights:

GDPR: access, rectification, restriction, deletion (“right to be forgotten”), data portability, objection to processing, and the right not to be subject to automated decision-making.

CCPA/CPRA: right to know data categories and sources, right to opt out of sale/sharing, right to deletion, and right to non-discrimination for exercising these rights.

Clearly state whether the company sells or shares personal data (even if not).

Disclose categories of personal data collected and whether any sensitive personal information is handled.

Integrate a complete Cookies Policy within the same document.

Require prior opt-in for non-essential cookies and describe how users can adjust or withdraw consent.

5. International Data Transfers (GDPR)

If the company transfers data outside the EU/EEA or UK, specify applicable safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or adequacy decisions.

6. Security Measures

Describe implemented data protection measures — such as encryption, access controls, regular audits, and employee training — instead of vague statements like “commercially reasonable security.”

7. Data Retention Policy

Specify how long personal data is retained and the criteria for determining retention periods.
