No cookie consent walls — and no, scrolling isn’t consent, says EU data protection body
On 4 May, the European Data Protection Board (“EDPB”) adopted an updated version of its guidelines on consent.
EDPB stated that you can’t make access to your website’s content dependent on a visitor agreeing that you can process their data — aka a ‘consent cookie wall’. EDPB also stated that scrolling on a website or digital service can not — in any way — be interpreted as consent.
