This module addresses the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) that came into effect 25th May 2018, and the EU Directive on Privacy and Electronic Communications from 2012. It provides a banner where you can gather consent from the user to store cookies on their computer and handle their personal information. The module offers several methods for getting consent: Consent by default, opt-in and opt-out. It's also possible to only display the banner for visitors from the EU. GDPR requires that you ask consent from your visitors if you store or process their personal details, such as the IP address or identifiable cookies.
