**The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) has launched a free tool to help organisations
in the charity and voluntary sector create a bespoke privacy notice.**

The new [privacy notice generator](https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/advice-for-small-organisations/create-your-own-privacy-notice/)
offers two different types of privacy notice. One for customer/supporter and supplier
information, which organisations can display on their website or external communications.
And another for staff and volunteer information, for inclusion in welcome packs,
policy libraries or other internal channels accessible to staff and volunteers. 

The tool replaces the ICO’s privacy notice template with a ‘quick and easy’ generator
tool to help smaller organisations create a bespoke privacy notice in a few steps.
As well as supporting small and medium-sized charities, it is also aimed at SMEs,
sole traders and start-ups.

The ICO is encouraging organisations that already have a privacy notice to use the
generator to check it is up to date.
