GRPR is the most relevant law that you need to adhere to for protection of personal data.
Other Laws
Depending where you are there may be different digital laws for you to address in your Privacy Policy or Terms of Service. For example, Spain there is the Ley de Servicios de la Sociedad de la Información y del Comercio Electrónico. The EU’s e-Commerce Directive policy is a good place to start if you are offering your services in the EU or to customers in the EU.
