How to make a vibe-coded app GDPR compliant

AI coding tools optimise for working code, not compliant code — they'll happily log PII, skip consent, and miss deletion endpoints.

1

Audit what the AI generated

Scan the generated code for PII logging, hardcoded secrets, and missing input validation before you ship.

2

Add the compliance pieces AI skips

AI rarely adds a consent banner, privacy policy, data export, or deletion — add these explicitly.

3

Lock down security

Add rate limiting, security headers, and CORS restrictions the generator left out.

4

Run a pre-launch scan

Run a full GDPR + security audit on your app before it goes live, and fix the criticals.

FAQs

Why isn't AI-generated code GDPR compliant?

Models optimise for functional output, not legal/privacy requirements, so they routinely omit consent, retention, and deletion logic.
