What about the cookie law? I don't get what has happened to the 'cookie law'. I have never seen a tutorial on how to do analytics properly, where you ask first and then run the 'gtag' script. The tutorials always show 'bang this in the header' and that is it. I would be interested in any article that shows how to do this properly, so on user interaction the cookie is created. I can figure it out for myself but that is not the point. I just see an absence of articles on how to do Analytics in a cookie compliant way where nothing is written on the visitor's computer unless they are okay with it. So if anyone has the article that has eluded me, please post. As an example of my misunderstanding, not with GA but with the BBC: If you go and clear BBC News cookies it comes up with some privacy notice thing at the top of the page but puts half a dozen cookies down. I thought you had to click okay before a cookie was splurged onto your computer. Have I misunderstood how it is supposed to work? Can you just disgorge the cookies and just show some boring cookie notice after that initial event?
