Don't take our word for the quality. Answer a few simple questions and we'll instantly create a professional Information Security Policy using your own business name and circumstances.
You don't need to start from a blank Word document. ComplyMATE is designed for the real situations that cause small businesses to need proper policies quickly.
Put clear policies behind areas such as accounts, backups, access and incident response.
Have documented policies ready instead of trying to write an answer from scratch.
Build a professional documentation baseline that reflects the way your business works.
Turn informal security habits into something clear, reviewable and documented.
Still unsure? Create your free Information Security Policy first.
You don't need to be pursuing a certification to need sensible cyber security documentation. If your business uses email, customer information, cloud software, phones, laptops or online systems, good policies help turn informal habits into a clear, documented approach.
Names, addresses, emails, invoices and customer records all need to be handled and protected sensibly.
Microsoft 365, Google, CRM, accounting and cloud storage all introduce questions around access, passwords, data and backups.
Home working, customer sites, personal devices and mobile working introduce risks that should be covered by clear policies.
Insurers increasingly ask about MFA, backups, access controls, incident response and the security processes you have in place.
Larger customers, tenders and supply chains may ask you to explain how you protect information and manage cyber security.
You don't need an IT department or a compliance project. Sometimes you just want sensible documentation behind the way your business operates.
You shouldn't have to spend days writing policies just to document how your business protects its systems and information.
Pick the Sole Trader or Business pack and complete secure Stripe checkout.
We'll email your unique link. Tell us how your business works using straightforward, plain-English questions.
Your answers are used to create a personalised set of professional, editable business documents.
These aren't blank templates. Each document is created around the answers you provide, so the wording reflects the size of your business, how you work, the systems you use and the information you handle.
For freelancers, contractors, trades and one-person businesses who want the essential foundations covered without unnecessary employee-focused paperwork.
For limited companies and SMEs with employees, contractors, multiple users, cloud systems or a more developed IT environment.
ComplyMATE isn't a Cyber Essentials certification service. It's a small-business cyber security documentation product that can support many different business requirements.
Cyber insurance forms increasingly ask about MFA, backups, employee access, security procedures and incident response. ComplyMATE helps you put the documented policies behind those practices in place. It doesn't guarantee insurance eligibility or cover, but it gives you a much better-organised starting point.
Larger organisations increasingly want suppliers to demonstrate how they protect information. Having documented policies means you're no longer starting from a blank page every time somebody asks about your security controls.
You don't need to be pursuing Cyber Essentials to use ComplyMATE. However, the pack helps document many of the surrounding practices that businesses often need to organise when preparing for certification. ComplyMATE does not provide or guarantee certification.
ComplyMATE is deliberately designed for businesses without an internal compliance team. You don't need to understand technical terminology - you just need to know how your own business operates.
We've deliberately kept the process straightforward.
The Sole Trader pack avoids employee-focused policies you don't need. The Business pack adds the extra controls and documentation required when multiple people access company systems and information.

Not sure? If anybody other than you regularly accesses business systems or information, the Business Pack is usually the better fit.
Cheap, but usually full of placeholders and wording you need to understand, rewrite and adapt yourself before they mean anything to your business.
Answer straightforward questions once. Your documents are then created around your business, your working practices and the systems you use - without the consultancy price tag.
Can be appropriate for complex organisations, but often means meetings, discovery work and a much larger bill than a small business needs for its core documentation.

No. ComplyMATE is a cyber security documentation product for UK small businesses. The policies can be useful when preparing for Cyber Essentials, but ComplyMATE is not a certification body and purchasing a pack does not provide or guarantee Cyber Essentials certification.
No. ComplyMATE produces business policies, procedures and operational guidance. They are not legal advice and are not intended to replace advice from a solicitor, data protection specialist or other regulated professional where that is required.
Yes. Your documents are created using the information you provide about your business, staff, working locations, systems, data, devices and current security practices.
Most customers should be able to complete it in around 5-10 minutes. Questions are deliberately written in straightforward language and unnecessary questions are avoided.
Yes. If you use email, customer details, cloud software, online banking, a laptop or a phone for business, cyber security and data handling are already relevant to you. The Sole Trader Pack strips out the employee-specific policies you don't need.
No product can automatically make every business compliant simply by providing documents. ComplyMATE helps you document sensible policies and identify areas for improvement. You are responsible for following the policies and making any operational changes recommended.
It can help you organise and document your approach to areas insurers commonly ask about, such as access control, backups and incident response. It does not guarantee that an insurer will accept an application or provide cover.
Yes. Your pack includes editable Word documents as well as PDF copies, so you can make changes as your business develops.
No. The £79 and £149 launch packages are one-off purchases. We may introduce optional review or update services in future, but there is no recurring subscription attached to these packs.
That's exactly who the service is designed for. The questionnaire asks about ordinary business practices rather than expecting you to understand technical cyber security terminology.
Yes. You can create a free Information Security Policy using a short set of questions. No card details or email address are required. The free document is created from quality-controlled policy sections selected from your answers and is intended to show you the style and practical approach used by ComplyMATE.
Choose the pack that fits the way you work. ComplyMATE will guide you through the short questionnaire and create the documentation from there.
