GDPR form?

Do I need to include a link to the GDPR page on every form on my site, or is it sufficient if it's already in the footer? I also have a banner stating that the GDPR applies.

I have to make a reference to the GDPR page on each form on my page

Doesn’t matter if you have to do this – just do it and save yourself any trouble.

Also have a banner where it says that the GDPR applies.

What for? The GDPR always applies. No matter if you have a banner or not and no matter what you write on this banner.

why should I write a note for each form

Because the GDPR prescribes that you will always inform the user that you will store his data as soon as he enters data on the basis of which he can be identified.

That looks stupid and annoys, and no side does that

You are free to let this happen and instead to risk expensive deliberations (whether justified or unauthorized, be put there at times).

Yeah, actually.

But it depends on whether the form has the footer or the page that leads to the form. If the footer is on a page that will guide you to the form, the page and the form will need the notice.

If the form itself is the page with the footer (restricted PDFs do not count because they are their own pages), you do not need it twice.

For safety, however, I can recommend that you add it a second time.

You have to come to the GDPR page from anywhere in a maximum of 2 clicks. So if they’re all connected, you’ve done everything right.

So I don’t need any extra references to the GDPR on each form?

You need to explain on each form what you do with the collected data and request the user’s consent.
