Guide only — this matter needs a solicitor. Under Irish law this work must be carried out by a solicitor, so it is not sold on this site. The information below explains what is involved so you can brief a solicitor with confidence.
OnlineLegalServices.ie is operated by Plus Promotions Limited, which is not a solicitor’s practice and does not give legal advice. To instruct a regulated practice, use the Law Society of Ireland’s Find a Solicitor directory.
Data protection and privacy policy drafting in Ireland provides a bespoke GDPR privacy policy for your business. Any website that collects personal data, through contact forms, analytics, cookies or email sign-ups, needs a clear, accurate privacy policy explaining what data you collect, why and how long you keep it.
Where your matter needs legal work, you instruct a solicitor directly; we provide information and self-complete templates only. The price is set, with no billable hours and no surprise invoices, and the service is fully online, so there is no need to travel to an office.
The price shown is the full professional fee for the service as described, and any third-party or State fees are listed separately where they apply. If your matter needs more than this service covers, a solicitor would explain the options before any further work is done.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a privacy policy cost in Ireland?
This page is a free guide — nothing on it is for sale. Solicitors set their own fees for this work and must give you a written costs estimate (a section 150 letter) before starting. Get quotes through the Law Society of Ireland’s Find a Solicitor directory.
What are the GDPR fines?
The DPC can impose fines of up to €20 million or 4% of global annual turnover for serious breaches.
How often should a privacy policy be updated?
Whenever your processing changes, and at least annually.
