Optional (nice touch for your brand – add at top or bottom)

Short intro version (hero text):

Thoughtfully designed spaces extend to how your data is handled. This website respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your information.

My honest take (important)

This is:

```
Clean enough for Squarespace UX
```

Strong enough for UK GDPR baseline compliance

Not overly corporate (fits your brand tone)

BUT — if you plan to:

```
Run ads heavily
```
```
Sell products
```
```
Scale internationally
```

Then later you should upgrade to a lawyer-reviewed version or generator like Iubenda / Termly.

If you want next:
I can set up your Cookie banner + consent text for Squarespace (this is actually the part most people get wrong).
