GDPR for your e-shop: 7 things you must have

TKTomáš Kohút5 June 20264 min read

This article deals with the law of the Slovak Republic and its application by Slovak courts and authorities.

Selling online without legal documents is like opening a shop without a door — it works until an inspection or an unhappy customer shows up. The good news: most obligations can be handled once and properly.

Seven things you should have: (1) terms and conditions, (2) a complaints policy, (3) a GDPR privacy policy, (4) a cookie notice and a consent tool, (5) clear information on the consumer’s right to withdraw, (6) data-processing agreements with vendors who process data for you (hosting, payments, e-mail), and (7) reasonable data security.

This isn’t just paperwork. In an inspection or a dispute, having your documents in order is what counts — and GDPR fines can hurt. Customers are also more likely to buy where they see a company takes data protection seriously.

Templates pulled off the internet often don’t fit your specific shop. We’re happy to prepare tailored documents — or review the ones you already use.
