EU Cookie Laws - Latest update
13th April 2012
From May 26th, cookies can only be placed on machines where the user or subscriber has explicitly given their consent. It’s no longer enough to simply state that your site uses cookies as part of a privacy statement - your users must now consent to the use of cookies. In addition to this, the consent must be ‘informed consent’, meaning that the user should be given information on the type of cookies being used and what they are used for.
