    Hello,

    Does anyone know of anyone developing a good plugin for the upcomming insain law about cookies? If you are in the UK, you pretty much need to ask everyone if they are ok with cookies.

    As we know in the UK they take european law so seriously it is not even second to the word of god, while in Europe they sit back and watch us chase our tales.

    There will be a law about cookies? Can you provide a link so I can read about it?

    Anyways: I think you can make a quick code snippet in PHP that asks you before a cookie is saved. Shouldn't be that hard to implement, if you know PHP

    I'm just going to provide a popup and that is that.

    Category 4 Cookies, the suggestion is...

    "This means that website operators and third parties must work together to ensure that the first party has complete information about the cookies used on that site and expressly agree the way in which consent to third-party cookies will be obtained from users and communicated to all parties."

    So, be aware, if you are unsure, you need to make sure everyone, the person using your website, and the person providing you with the cookie, is aware that the user, said yes.
