What is a GDPR compliant cookie banner?
A GDPR compliant cookie banner is an interactive module that informs your users of all cookies and trackers in operation on your website, their purpose, duration and provider, and enables users to give their explicit consent to some, none or all cookies by ticking boxes or sliding controls and pressing a button.
Do cookie banners respect my choice?
Even though many cookie banners provide a meaningful choice to the users, some of them do not respect it. Some banners store a positive consent even if the user has explicitly opted out of all tracking. This practice can be considered deceptive as it results in accepting data collection against users' will.
What should cookie banner say?
The cookie banner must provide users with a button to accept cookies. It must provide information about cookie use including what data is collected and why, as well as mention if it shares data with third-parties. It must have a link to the website's cookie policy and cookie settings.
What is cookie consent banner?
A cookie consent banner is a cookie notification that is displayed on websites and other apps in the form of a banner or pop-up upon the user's visit that explicitly asks for users' consent before deploying cookies. It does not just inform the user about cookies on a website but asks for their consent first.
