New data processing agreement
In order to ensure compliance with the GDPR, we’ve adapted iubenda’s T&Cs to the new legal framework. In particular, we’ve added a Data Processing Agreement pursuant to art. 28 of the GDPR that becomes a binding part of our contractual relationship with you. You can read the new T&C and DPA as well as some details about what’s changed here.
The DPA outlines iubenda’s duties concerning certain data processing practices. Acceptance of this change is a condition to continue using iubenda. It does, in any case, not affect the way you use iubenda.
GDPR templates free to download
We have also released some helpful templates for your convenience, based on the work we’ve done in the last couple of months surrounding GDPR:
- Data Processing Agreement (GDPR Template) →
- Non-Disclosure and Confidentiality Obligation for Employees (GDPR Template) →
- Data Protection Officer (DPO) Appointment Letter (GDPR Template) →
- EU Representative Appointment (GDPR Template) →
- Data Protection Impact Assessment (GDPR DPIA Template) →
New features released regularly for the Consent Solution + Internal Privacy Management plan
A few months back we released our new Consent Solution + Internal Privacy Management Plan to further help you with legal compliance, especially in regards to the GDPR. The plan includes both the Consent Solution, which allows you to easily track, store, manage and retrieve user consent, and the Internal Privacy Management Solution, which allows you to easily document all the data processing activity within your organization.
For everyone who has not tried the above solutions yet, it is still available at the great introductory bundle price $39/month for an unlimited number of websites or projects. We are releasing new features for both solutions on a monthly basis. One of the recent, most requested features released was the auto-sync feature for the Consent Solution.
Cookie Solution: enable advertising preference management
If your website runs ads the following announcement is very important to you. The new IAB Framework gives users a convenient way to manage preferences and is quickly becoming industry standard. If you’re a first-party publisher, we highly recommended that you enable this feature as some ad networks may limit access to their network if not implemented, potentially causing you to lose ad revenue.

Sorting in the dashboard and multiple processing locations
We have introduced more filters for the Privacy Policy generator including alphabetic and date of creation filtering. The filter state is saved in your user preference, so that you find the same settings when you go back the next time.
On the Privacy and Cookie Policy Generator, we now allow you to specify, for services that support it, the place of processing. You can even select multiple ones. For instance, if you use Amazon Web Services, you can now specify the region(s) when adding or editing the service.

We have also integrated the following services which are now available from within the generator for our users.
