About Iubenda

Iubenda provides automated compliance solutions for websites and applications, focusing on privacy policies, cookie consent management, and data processing documentation. The platform serves organizations that need to comply with multiple privacy regulations including GDPR, CPRA (CCPA amendment), LGPD, and ePrivacy Directive. The system maintains over 3 million self-updating documents and operates across 14 languages, making it suitable for businesses with international operations.

What does Iubenda do?

The platform's core functionality centers on document generation and compliance management. Through a database of over 2,000 legal clauses, Iubenda enables users to create customized privacy policies and terms of conditions that automatically update when relevant laws change. The system includes a cookie consent management platform (CMP) that handles cookie banners, consent collection, and prior blocking mechanisms for websites and applications.

For organizations subject to strict privacy regulations, Iubenda provides tools to document data processing activities and maintain records of consent, which are legally required in regions such as Europe and Brazil. The platform implements specific features for different regional requirements, such as opt-out mechanisms for US users under CPRA and VCDPA when dealing with data profiling or sharing.

The platform extends beyond basic privacy documentation by offering a whistleblower reporting channel, designed specifically for organizations with 50 or more employees who must comply with the EU Whistleblower Directive. This system enables companies to collect and manage internal reports while maintaining reporter confidentiality and identity protection.

What makes Iubenda different?

Iubenda's approach to compliance focuses on automation and self-updating capabilities. The platform monitors global legislation changes and automatically updates previously generated documents to maintain compliance. This systematic approach helps reduce the manual effort typically required for maintaining up-to-date privacy documentation across multiple jurisdictions.

The platform holds certification as a Google CMP with support for the Transparency and Consent Framework (TCF) and Google Consent Mode. These certifications enable integration with major advertising and analytics platforms while maintaining compliance with privacy regulations. The system synchronizes consent records with legal documents and provides a dashboard for reviewing consent activities.

Use cases and industries

The platform serves various business types, with specific optimizations for e-commerce, marketplace platforms, SaaS providers, and mobile applications. For international businesses, Iubenda addresses the challenge of simultaneous compliance with multiple regional regulations by implementing region-specific disclosures and requirements within privacy documents.

Organizations using Iubenda can embed consent collection forms into their existing systems, manage advertising preferences, and implement cookie blocking mechanisms. The platform includes features for both small businesses needing basic privacy policies and larger organizations requiring complex compliance documentation across multiple jurisdictions and languages.

Through its partner program, Iubenda provides additional resources for agencies and web professionals who manage compliance for multiple clients. This program enables these professionals to expand their services to include privacy compliance management while maintaining consistent standards across their client base.
