PrivacyBee Completes Privacy Suite for SMEs
PrivacyBee, a Bern-based start-up, has added a new Impressum (legal notice) module to its privacy platform, enabling automated generation and maintenance of cookie banners, privacy policies and legal notices for SME websites. The platform scans sites to detect used services, keeps documents up to date, and offers lawyer-reviewed texts plus a legal-warning (abmahn) protection guarantee. Concurrently, the four-person leadership team (CEO Tom Röthlisberger, CMO Julia Moll, CPO Jannik Fivian, CTO Benjamin Indermühle) moved from Digital Innovation Lab AG to be directly employed by PrivacyBee AG, and the company closed a financing round whose size and investors were not disclosed. Founded in 2023 by Domenig & Partner Rechtsanwälte AG and Digital Innovation Lab AG, PrivacyBee reports more than 11,000 active subscriptions and over 500 partners.
