Which One Is Right for You?
Both Complianz and Termly offer helpful privacy solutions for businesses. They each have an in-house legal team, their tools were built by experts, and they help businesses align with privacy laws.
But Complianz’s products are only available for Shopify stores and WordPress sites.
In contrast, Termly offers consent solutions and policy generators that work for any business, whether your website or app is built on WordPress, another CMS, or is entirely self-managed.
Another key factor to consider is the number of jurisdictions each solution covers.
While Termly’s privacy solution helps businesses comply with over 30 privacy laws worldwide, Complianz focuses primarily on major regulations, such as those in the USA, UK, and EU. As a result, Termly may be a better fit for global businesses.
But when choosing the right privacy compliance partner for your business, the choice is 100% yours to make.
