NOYB has launched a second campaign against cookie banners not in compliance with the GDPR. There were 270 draft complaints that were sent to website managers, allowing them to improve the presentation of their banners. NOYB’s goal is to ensure that visitors to websites have the real ability to refuse the use of cookies, that the refusal be as simple as the acceptance, that they are sufficiently informed on the processing of their data, etc. If NOYB sees no improvement in the stated timeframe of 60 days, it will send those complaints to the national authorities for data protection.
There are several resources allowing website managers to ensure that their cookie banners are compliant, including:
EDPB’s consent guidelines (English)
NOYB’s technical recommendations
DSM Avocats à la Cour assists its clients with the analysis and understanding of the law and the various guidelines and recommendations to ensure their compliance with the GDPR.
