EU ePrivacy Regulation Compliance

€125.00

“The ePrivacy Regulation serves as a revision to the current ePrivacy Directive. Similar to the GDPR, the regulation is based in the EU, but requires compliance from any business targeting EU consumers.”

As is the case with the GDPR, the new EU ePrivacy Regulation (ePR) is based in and enforced by Supervisory Authorities from the European Economic Area and Switzerland.

However, as both pieces of legislation act to grant rights to EU citizens, they are applicable to any business that targets EU citizens. The bottom line is that most online businesses will need to comply with the guidelines of the ePrivacy Regulation.You can test your site for both GDPR and ePR compliance here (note, this is just a quick test. Your site may still fail a full audit by a professional body).

Cookies have proven (most) important when it comes to the ePrivacy Regulation. In fact, its predecessor – the ePrivacy Directive – is referred to as “The Cookie Law.”

In its amended and improved form, that title should hold no less true, as the regulation continues to heavily address the deployment of and user consent to computer cookies and other tracking technologies.

How the regulation seeks to improve the current directive’s provision on cookies is by streamlining the way cookie consent is introduced and collected.

Purchasing this addon will add the required functionality to your WordPress website to give visitors more control over cookies than just ACCEPT or DECLINE, and therefore make your business compliant with ePR.

This is a one time purchase.
