Customizable cookies – GDPR compatible
If your website is based in the European Union (EU), or if a citizen based in the EU may interact with your site, you’re required to have a Cookie Policy according to the law – GDPR Cookies module.
In May 2018, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into force. This legislation protects the rights of EU citizens to maintain control of their personal data.
It is important to keep in mind that a Cookie Policy isn’t only required for businesses based in the EU. Having this policy is also necessary for any website getting traffic from users from an EU member state.
The regulations surrounding cookies make it very clear that a user must take an action that clearly indicates the acceptance of, and consent to, the use of cookies.
