Companies have been challenged with respect to their cookie
policies and their implementation due to the entry into force of
the GDPR earlier than the proposed ePrivacy Regulation
Given the delay in the adoption of an EU-wide
regulation on e-privacy, national data protection authorities have
taken the initiative in publishing guidelines on cookies
requirements. The publication of guidelines by the German data
protection authorities, followed by the Information
Commissioner's Office (ICO) (in early July 2019), prompted the
French Data Protection Authority (CNIL) to update its own
recommendations on the use of cookies on 18 July 2019, and these
have now been supplemented by draft recommendations on practical
steps.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general
guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought
about your specific circumstances.
