This is where I would consult a lawyer. It appears that no matter how granular the data is one must ask the visitor for consent and it gets stricter if the visitor is a child [1]. The site must disclose exactly what it is collecting so in your case it would be the country of origin. Again, I am not a lawyer and will always take the conservative approach to avoid fines so unless there is an official document that states the granularity by country does not apply I would avoid it.
