frequently asked Questions

Not sure if you need a CMP?

To help you with things like GDPR, CMP and consent, we’ve rounded up the most common questions here.

In principle, website operators have had to ask their visitors for consent to the processing of technically unnecessary cookies since 2009. In the past, however, this was often interpreted as an opt-out: the cookies were basically created, while users had to expressly opt out so that this did not happen. With the judgment of 2019, this option no longer exists, since the opt-in is now explicitly provided for. You may only create technically non-essential cookies if your visitors have given their permission .

If a visitor refuses to process cookies, no corresponding data can be transmitted . This eliminates valuable tracking and analysis data on user behavior, for example.

The cookie consent is required wherever cookies are to be collected that go beyond the technical operation of the site . These require an explicit opt-in by your visitors. Only when this is available can the first Drupal cookie be set and processed. This includes all tracking and analytics cookies. Cookies that are technically necessary for operation are an exception to this rule.

You can obtain explicit consent in the form of an opt-in via a Drupal Cookie Consent Banner. This appears as soon as visitors visit your website. Before the content of the page is played, the Drupal Cookie Notice asks your visitors for consent to the use of cookies. This is an opt-in procedure that ensures legal certainty against the background of the ECJ ruling.

Cookie consent is the consent of your visitors to the use and processing of cookies . As soon as users reach your website, cookies are created. Some of them are technically necessary. Others are not essential for the functioning of the site. The latter fall under the ECJ cookie judgment of 2019. This means that they require express consent. Drupal Cookie Consent is therefore consent to the cookies of your Drupal shop.
