Cookies and You
The Truste folks who issue the Truste certification seal you see on websites has issued the following statement;
If your websites or apps attract European users you must adhere to the requirements of the EU Cookie Directive - not complying exposes you to unnecessary risk.
Not only do you need to worry about regulator enforcement and consumer expectations, but Google AdSense policy now requires all advertisers on their network to comply with EU cookie consent policy.
How do you comply? If your website serves traffic to anyone in the EU, you must obtain consent in order to comply.
