What does PDPL compliance cost — and how long does it take?
The honest answer is: it depends on what your site does. Here is what drives the price and the timeline, and how we turn that into a fixed quote after one short scoping call.
How to think about it
Not a fixed sticker price — a scope, then a fixed quote.
A compliant site is a professional boutique build, not a template — priced to what you actually need, not a headline number.
Most of the cost and time is decided by your forms, trackers, integrations and whether we build fresh or retrofit.
A short scoping call turns that into a fixed quote, so there are no surprises later.
FAQ
Cost & effort, answered honestly
How much does a PDPL-compliant website cost?
It depends on scope — how many pages, how many forms, which integrations and trackers, and whether we build fresh or adapt an existing site. Rather than a misleading headline figure, we give you a fixed quote after a short scoping call. It is a professional boutique build, not a cheap template.
How long does it take?
Most projects ship in a few weeks, depending on scope. Because compliance is designed into the build rather than retrofitted, it does not add a separate phase at the end.
Can I just fix my existing site instead of rebuilding?
Sometimes. A free PDPL check tells us whether a targeted retrofit or a fresh build is the sensible call — and either way you get a clear recommendation, not an automatic upsell.
Is there an ongoing cost?
The build is a one-off. There is an optional care plan for updates and periodic re-checks, but no mandatory SaaS subscription — the consent engine and compliance are built into your own site.
What's the cheapest way to get compliant?
Start with the free PDPL check so you know exactly where you stand, then fix only what matters. And skip an enterprise cookie-consent platform you do not need — a first-party consent engine is usually the lighter, cheaper fit.
Do you offer fixed pricing?
Yes. After a short scoping conversation we give a fixed quote for the work, so you can decide with the full number in front of you.
