In our GDPR document mainly we concentrate on the elements that are related to the changes that we are introducing to the system from our perspective as a Data Processor. We are also mentioning the processes related to communication about the implementation of the relevant GDPR elements.

Please do remember we only approached GDPR from our (your supplier) perspective. This is far more comprehensive legislation with a lot of elements in place for other types of processing private data - unrelated to your web systems.
Also, it is worth to mention in many industries where you work with minors or storing or exchanging sensitive data sets there is a chance that GDPR is only an addition to the existing general and industry level laws that are dealing with the privacy and security of this sensitive data.
