Privacy compliance doesn't have to be complicated. Iubenda is a privacy and cookie policy solution trusted by over 110,000 websites worldwide, helping businesses of all sizes navigate GDPR, CCPA, and other privacy regulations without hiring expensive lawyers.
Most businesses struggle with privacy compliance because legal language is complex and regulations keep changing. Iubenda solves this by turning compliance into a straightforward process - answer a few questions about your website, and their system generates legally vetted policies that automatically update when laws change.
The platform isn't just about generating documents. It's a complete privacy infrastructure that includes cookie consent banners, terms and conditions, internal privacy management tools, and consent tracking - all designed to work together seamlessly.
The cookie solution stands out because it's both technically sophisticated and remarkably easy to implement. Unlike basic cookie banners that just show a notification, Iubenda's system actually blocks cookies until users give consent, which is what GDPR requires.
The banner automatically detects which cookies your site uses and categorizes them correctly. It handles the complex technical work of preventing tracking scripts from loading, all while keeping your site fast and functional. For users, the interface is clean and doesn't disrupt their browsing experience.
What's particularly useful is the consent database - every user choice gets logged with timestamp and IP address, creating the proof of consent that regulators ask for during audits. This alone can save businesses from significant compliance headaches.
The policy generator asks targeted questions about your business operations - what data you collect, how you use it, which third-party services you integrate with. Based on your answers, it produces policies covering GDPR, CCPA, CalOPPA, Australian Privacy Act, and other major regulations.
The real value appears over time. Laws change constantly, and Iubenda's legal team monitors these updates. When a regulation changes, your policy updates automatically. You don't need to track legal news or pay for policy revisions.
The system recognizes over 1,500 popular services and plugins, from Google Analytics to Mailchimp to payment processors. When you indicate which tools you use, Iubenda includes the appropriate disclosures and legal clauses automatically.
Iubenda offers several tiers based on how many websites you manage and which features you need:
The Free plan lets you try the privacy policy generator with basic functionality - good for understanding how the system works, though it includes Iubenda branding.
👉 Start your free trial to test the policy generator and see if it fits your needs.
Privacy & Cookie Policy starts at €27/year for a single website, removing branding and unlocking full customization. This covers the core compliance needs for most small sites.
Privacy & Cookie Policy + Consent Solution at €54/year adds the cookie banner and consent database - essential if you use any tracking, analytics, or advertising cookies. This is the minimum recommended tier for GDPR compliance.
All-Inclusive plans start at €135/year and include Internal Privacy Management tools, Terms & Conditions generator, and priority support. For agencies or businesses managing multiple client sites, there are multi-site bundles with significant volume discounts.
Most businesses find the Cookie Solution tier hits the sweet spot between compliance coverage and budget.
Getting started takes about 15 minutes. After signing up, you answer questions about your website through a guided questionnaire. The system generates your policies instantly.
For the cookie banner, you copy a single line of JavaScript into your website's header. The banner appears automatically and starts blocking non-essential cookies. Most popular website builders have direct integrations that make this even simpler.
The dashboard shows consent statistics, policy views, and compliance status. When you add new services to your website, you update your Iubenda configuration and the policies refresh accordingly.
E-commerce sites that collect customer data and process payments need robust privacy infrastructure. Iubenda handles the disclosure requirements around data collection, payment processing, and email marketing without requiring legal expertise.
Content websites using advertising networks or analytics tools must manage cookie consent properly. The automatic cookie detection and blocking prevents compliance violations that could result in fines.
SaaS companies and app developers dealing with user accounts benefit from the complete policy suite - privacy policy, terms of service, and data processing agreements all generated from the same platform.
Digital agencies managing multiple client websites appreciate the multi-site plans and white-label options that let them provide compliance as a service.
The fundamental insight behind Iubenda is treating privacy compliance as ongoing infrastructure rather than a one-time legal document. Regulations evolve, websites add features, and user expectations change.
By centralizing policy management and automating updates, the platform removes the compliance burden from business owners. You configure once, then the system maintains legal currency automatically.
The consent database becomes particularly valuable if regulators ever question your compliance. Having timestamped proof of user consent, properly categorized and stored, demonstrates good faith effort at compliance.
Iubenda works with essentially any website platform. Direct integrations exist for WordPress, Shopify, Wix, Squarespace, and other major builders. For custom sites, the JavaScript snippet approach works universally.
The cookie solution integrates with Google Tag Manager, making it easy to control which tags fire based on user consent. It also connects with popular analytics platforms to ensure tracking only activates after consent.
For businesses with mobile apps, Iubenda provides mobile SDKs for iOS and Android that handle in-app consent collection with the same legal backing as the web solution.
The platform supports policy generation in 11 languages, automatically translating based on your user base. This is particularly useful for international businesses that need compliant policies across multiple jurisdictions.
Geographic coverage extends beyond GDPR to include CCPA (California), LGPD (Brazil), PIPEDA (Canada), and other regional privacy laws. The system determines which regulations apply based on your audience and generates appropriate disclosures.
Documentation is extensive, with setup guides for every major platform and troubleshooting for common scenarios. The help center includes video tutorials and detailed articles about privacy law concepts.
Email support responds within one business day on standard plans, with priority support available on higher tiers. The legal team can be consulted for complex questions, though this isn't substitute for dedicated legal counsel on major business decisions.
The community forum connects users who share implementation tips and discuss privacy compliance strategies.
Iubenda handles the standard 95% of privacy compliance very well, but complex or unusual business models may still need custom legal review. The generated policies are comprehensive but templates nonetheless.
The cookie solution works excellently for standard web technologies but may require custom configuration for highly specialized tracking implementations.
Businesses operating in heavily regulated industries (healthcare, finance) should verify that generated policies meet industry-specific requirements beyond general privacy law.
The smartest approach is starting with the free trial to familiarize yourself with the system. Generate a test policy, see how the cookie banner looks on your site, and evaluate whether the interface makes sense for your workflow.
Most businesses quickly realize that the annual cost is minimal compared to hiring a lawyer for policy creation, let alone the ongoing cost of keeping those policies updated.
