An authoritative guide on the EU "cookie law" - don't worry...yet

Newsletter

The EU requirement is that any cookie (or other equivalent mechanism) other than a "session-cookie" essential for the working of a website (and tracking, ad-serving and stats are NOT essential) will at some point in the next 12 months require opt-in consent from a web-site visitor.

  • You do NOT need to get consent right now - Nellie Kroes of the European Commission AND Christopher Graham, the UK Information Commissioner have both made it clear there is a 12 month "grace" period
  • Both have also made it clear that they expect the web-browser suppliers to come up with a solution (this is a global problem as legislation is being threatened worldwide)
  • You should NOT make any immediate changes to your website
  • You SHOULD review the list of actions you DO need to take in our free guide and consider circulating it to everyone who has anything to do with the web in your business.

So, don’t worry, take the dire warning of the doom mongers with a large pinch of salt, relax, and download their to download their guide click here: "The new Cookie Law in the UK and Europe"
