I wish there was some kind of compliance fast track.

Like a starter kit for startups that aren't really interested in doing anything with people's personal data, but where it's just an accidental complexity of doing business with people. Maybe a pre-written terms of service, a code of conduct and a checklist for features your product needs to have for people to correct or delete their data themselves, which you don't want to waste time doing manually anyway.

At a certain point most companies are going to want to do some more advanced analytics on the personal data, but by then they have probably already grown to a scale where it doesn't hurt as much to hire a legal counsel to write a new ToS for their specific use case.

It might make sense for VCs to chip in and hire a law firm to make such a starter kit, to be distributed under a Creative Commons or similar license. Just like creative commons itself is a legal starter kit for creators who don't need a bespoke solution to ease up on a little on their copyrights.

That's a good point. Thanks for your comment!
