GDPR for Startups: comply with the law without slowing your growth
We help you comply with GDPR without complications: privacy policy, cookies, forms, databases and more.
Schedule your GDPR consultationWhy should your startup comply with GDPR from the start?
Do you only have a landing page and a form? Even so, you're already obligated to comply with GDPR. Do you capture leads, use cookies, do email marketing or connect with Stripe or Google Analytics? Then you're collecting and processing personal data.
GDPR is not optional. And although it may not seem like it, fines can reach even small startups. Moreover, many investors, accelerators and corporate clients require everything to be in order before closing deals.
At Satya Legal we help you comply with GDPR without slowing your pace. No generic templates, no incomprehensible legal language, and adapted to how your product, app or web actually works.
What does our GDPR compliance service for startups include?
At Satya Legal we don't give you a standard PDF or a copied policy. We work with you to understand how your startup works and adapt legal compliance to your product, your tools and your business model.
Privacy policy and legal notice
Personalized, written from scratch, adapted to your web, app or platform.
Cookie management
Technical analysis, banner configuration and clear policy writing. Real compliance, not just visual.
Forms and consent
We adapt your forms (contact, subscription, lead magnet) so they collect only what's necessary and with valid consent.
Databases and mailing
We advise you on how to handle your email lists, segment audiences and comply when using tools like Mailchimp, Brevo or similar.
Data processing agreements
We draft or review your agreements with providers who access data: CRM, hosting, development, marketing...
Record of processing activities (ROPA)
Mandatory in many cases even if you're small. We leave it resolved so you have no surprises.
And if you're validating product or still in MVP phase, we give you the right and legal version so you comply without overloading your startup with paperwork.
Common startup mistakes in data protection
Complying with GDPR is not just putting a notice on the web. These are some of the most common mistakes we see in startups that come to consult us... often too late:
Forms without valid consent: "I accept the privacy policy" is not enough if it's not clear and well written.
Landing published without real cookie policy: They use Analytics or Facebook Ads and don't inform properly or ask for permission correctly.
Sending newsletters to people who didn't give permission: Buying databases or doing email marketing without consent registration is risky.
Lack of third-party contracts: You have data in Google Drive, Notion, Webflow or your marketing agency... but you don't have contracts with them as data processors.
Neglecting MVP data: "It's just a test"... but you collect data anyway. And that, legally, already obliges you to comply.
All these errors have solutions, but if you solve them from the beginning you save time, money, scares... and bad image with investors or large clients.
Frequently asked questions about GDPR for startups
Is it mandatory to comply with GDPR if I only have a web with form?
Yes. From the moment you collect personal data (name, email, etc.) you're obligated to comply. Even if you don't invoice yet or are validating your idea.
How much does it cost to adapt my startup to GDPR?
It depends on your complexity, but at Satya Legal we work with fixed prices from €450. We give you just what you need to comply well, without inflating the budget.
What happens if I don't have privacy policy or cookies?
You can be sanctioned by the data protection authority, lose credibility with users or investors, or face claims. And the worst: not knowing you're at risk.
Do I need contracts with providers like Notion, Google, Stripe?
Yes. They are data processors. You must sign an agreement or verify that their conditions cover what GDPR requires. We help you solve it without drama.
Is there a way to comply without killing my conversion?
Of course. Well-done compliance doesn't block. What slows down is copying templates or putting absurd banners. We design a legal and usable solution for you.
Want to comply with GDPR without blocking your startup?
You're collecting data. You're growing. And sooner or later, someone —investor, client, supplier— will ask you to have everything legal. Get ahead, comply well and without friction.
At Satya Legal we help you implement GDPR agilely, adapted to your web, app or digital business. No templates. No posturing. No scares.
