Do small businesses need to comply with GDPR?

Yes. The GDPR applies to any organization that processes personal data of EU residents, regardless of size or location. If you collect email addresses, use analytics, or process customer orders involving EU residents, you need to comply. Enforcement authorities have fined businesses with fewer than 50 employees.

How much does privacy compliance cost?

Privacy consultants typically charge $5,000-$20,000+, and enterprise compliance tools cost $500-$10,000/month. Dxtra provides comprehensive privacy compliance starting at $10/month, covering 500+ obligations across 140+ countries with AI-powered automation.

What is a Transparency Center?

A Transparency Center is a public-facing page that shows your customers exactly how you handle their data — your privacy policies, data processing activities, consent records, and rights request process. It builds trust and demonstrates compliance. Dxtra generates and maintains your Transparency Center automatically.

What regulations does Dxtra cover?

Dxtra covers 500+ privacy obligations across 140+ countries, including GDPR (EU), CCPA/CPRA (California), LGPD (Brazil), PIPL (China), DPDPA (India), PDPA (Singapore/Malaysia), HIPAA (US healthcare), POPIA (South Africa), PIPEDA (Canada), and many more. It also covers standards like ISO 27701.

Can I use Dxtra with Shopify, Stripe, or Mailchimp?

Yes. Dxtra integrates with Shopify, Stripe, Mailchimp, Google Analytics, HubSpot, Xero, QuickBooks, Klaviyo, and more. Integrations auto-detect data processing activities so your privacy program stays current as your tech stack evolves.

Compare your site

You know you need to comply. The options are broken.

Your customers are asking how you handle their data. Your partners want proof. But the existing options were not built for businesses your size.

Doing nothing and hoping for the best

No privacy policy, no data mapping, no consent records. You know it matters but have no idea where to start — until a customer complaint or regulator inquiry arrives.

Consultants charge $5,000–$20,000+

For an initial assessment alone. Then ongoing fees for every change. Your accountant may recommend one but cannot help with the detail.

Enterprise tools cost $500–10,000/month

OneTrust, Transcend, Osano, Ketch — built for legal teams at large companies. Too complex, too expensive for your business.

DIY templates do not scale

A free privacy policy template and a spreadsheet for consent. Feels productive until you realise it’s not actually compliant.

Free cookie tools solve one piece

A cookie banner is not compliance. You still need data mapping, privacy notices, DSAR handling, breach reporting, and more.

Sound familiar?

Every business function has its breakthrough tool.

Why Now

Enforcement is accelerating — and small businesses are not exempt

GDPR fines have reached €7.1bn since 2018, with €1.2bn issued in 2025 alone (DLA Piper, January 2026). Your customers are asking how you handle their data. Your partners want proof. The window for “we’ll deal with it later” is closing.

A hotel in Hamburg routinely photocopied guests’ ID cards at check-in. Regulators found no valid legal basis to keep the copies under the GDPR.
