Isn't that a GDPR violation since they're not allowed to prevent access if you refuse to share data not necessary for the service to function? Since it's from Meta I suspect regulators would enjoy another thing to add to the list for future fine calculations.
- dspillett 3y agoIt depends. If everything stored & tracked is genuinely necessary (as defined by the regulations) then consent is not required. If they are just telling you that they are storing & tracking necessary things like session information, then all is good (unless the things they store & track are not, in fact, strictly necessary and non-privacy-affecting). Of course if they don't need consent, then why are they making a song & dance about it having us click an accept button?

- mike_d 3y agoNot at all. You can have a single prompt with a single accept button if you are only using functional cookies on a site.
- capableweb 3y agoIn that case, you don't need anything, no notice nor consent required at all, get rid of the entire modal/popup/banner.
