Free cookies notice (IAPP): drafting notes

This simple cookies notice can be used by a website operator to aid compliance with disclosure and transparency laws relating to the use of cookies. This document has been drafted to reflect the specific requirements of both EU and UK law. For some cookies, EU law requires that operators gain end user consent. The use of this notice will not, in itself, constitute such consent. Where the use of cookies involves the processing of personal data, then data protection law will apply in addition to cookie-specific laws. Data protection laws may require the disclosure of more extensive information than that set out in this cookies notice.

Section 1: Introduction

Section 1.2

The inclusion of this statement in your policy will not in itself satisfy the requirements of the EU’s ePrivacy Directive or the UK’s Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003 as regards consent to the use of cookies.

  • Directive 2002/58/EC (Directive on privacy and electronic
    communications) – https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=CELEX:32002L0058&from=EN

Section 3: About cookies

Section 3.1

Under EU law, there are
two additional requirements in relation to the use of cookies and similar technologies, which apply over-and-above the rules regulating the processing of
personal data: a consent requirement and an information disclosure requirement. The provisions of this document relating to cookies are designed to aid
compliance with the information disclosure requirement.

This requirement derives from Article 5(3) of Directive 2002/58/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 12 July 2002 concerning the processing of personal data and the protection of privacy in the electronic communications sector (Directive on privacy and electronic communications), which provides that:

“Member States shall ensure that the use of electronic communications networks to store information or to gain access to information stored in the terminal equipment of a subscriber or user is only allowed on condition that the subscriber or user concerned is provided with clear and comprehensive information in accordance with Directive 95/46/EC, inter alia about the purposes of the processing, and is offered the right to refuse such processing by the data controller. This shall not prevent any technical storage or access for the sole purpose of carrying out or facilitating the transmission of a communication over an electronic communications network, or as strictly necessary in order to provide an information society service explicitly requested by the subscriber or user.”

The requirement was implemented in the UK in the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003. In its current (amended) form, Regulation 6 states:

“(1) Subject to paragraph (4), a person shall not store or gain access to information stored, in the terminal equipment of a subscriber or user unless the requirements of paragraph (2) are met.

(2) The requirements are that the subscriber or user of that terminal equipment – (a) is provided with clear and comprehensive information about the purposes of the storage of, or access to, that information; and (b) has given his or her consent.

(3) Where an electronic communications network is used by the same person to store or access information in the terminal equipment of a subscriber or user on more than one occasion, it is sufficient for the purposes of this regulation that the requirements of paragraph (2) are met in respect of the initial use.

(3A) For the purposes of paragraph (2), consent may be signified by a subscriber who amends or sets controls on the internet browser which the subscriber uses or by using another application or program to signify consent.

(4) Paragraph (1) shall not apply to the technical storage of, or access to, information – (a) for the sole purpose of carrying out the transmission of a communication over an electronic communications network; or (b) where such storage or access is strictly necessary for the provision of an information society service requested by the subscriber or user.”

In their original form, these Regulations can be found on the legislation.gov.uk website.
