If you're a small company, internal procedures can be straightforward and proportionate. A standard privacy policy will suffice.
A GDPR industry has crept up, a bit like the millennium bug industry in 1999 with many scare-mongers prophisising gloom and doom to line their pockets. Bad news GDPR consultants, I wasn't fooled in 1999 and I won't be fooled now.
