In this excellent interview with Stine Mangor Tornmark, Founder & CEO of Legal Monster, we run through the Top Tips and Key Developments on cookies in 2021, including:

  • the simple errors that led Google & Amazon to be fined €135m by CNIL and how to easily avoid them,
  • what a cookie notice needs to have / do,
  • is the draft e-Privacy Reg evolution or revolution?
  • the draft e-PR’s jurisdiction, covering publishers in non-EEA countries,
  • what Brexit means for UK companies on cookies,
  • what’s happening with 3rd party cookies, and
  • 5 Top Tips on cookies in 2021!

For example, did you know that CNIL, the French Data Protection Authority, recently wrote to the top 1,000 websites in France to remind them of the 31 March 2021 deadline for complying with their new detailed guidance on cookies? If you were to get such a letter, are you in a good place?
