Privacy PaulICO Cookie Crackdown 2.0: The ICO’s New Storage and Access Technologies Guidance https://www.zwillgen.com/eu-uk/ico-cookie-crackdown-2-icos-new-storage-access-technologies-guidance/
My experience witH the #ICO is that they may have all these rules and regulations but they don’t follow them up or enforce them. 99.9% of websites fail on the PECR either by
• using cookie popups that make it much more difficult to opt out than to agree
• classifying cookies wrongly ( especiall saying marketing/tracking cookies are essential)
• using GoogleTagManager without gaining approval
• using Google’s reCAPTCHA without approval (something the ICO explicitly states is not allowed)
The ICO needs to spend less time publishing documents and more time punishing wrongdoers.
