Choosing to Accept Cookies When Using a Website.
Ask a Question
Can you remember years and years ago you would view an email and we be viewed witht he dreaded GDPR message .My new bug bear is the cookies message .So you might go onto a website numerous times and each and everytime you get greeted by the message do you accept all the cookies ?How can you get rid of this bloody message as I would love the answer .
It's to protect you so that companies can't get your data automatically.
I would you would have thought that this would be a good thing? Or are you happy with people just getting your info without consent?
TheChimp Privacy? You'd have to not use a smartphone nor a computer to actually have privacy and even then it wouldn't mean much.
On PC, I just have an add-on that automatically takes care of cookies.
I wish you could deny cookies more often for example if just having a quick nosey at site
I agree, it would be nice to have a look around first before deciding whether to give consent or not.
It is annoying, but due to UK/EU law companies have to ask for user consent on their websites. I haven't tried it, but if you use a VPN, one possible way of avoiding cookie pop-ups is setting your 'location' to a country that has different Cookie legislation.
I've noticed recently a number of websites that run competitions are compelling prospective entrants to sign-up for all of the Cookies. Otherwise, the entry form won't appear. Which is unfortunate, as I usually only sign up for Essential Cookies.
I like the cookies as I like my cashback to track, so just accept unless it is from somewhere I never shop.
The browser I use on PC heavily cleans up how I view websites since it blocks ads, bypasses cookies, hides elements, etc.. makes it cleaner.
If to use TCB, I use Chrome.
PhilipMarc Thanks a lot Philip . Hope u have a great day mate and hopefully its not raining to much where you are .
stuartsmith544 I don't mind rain too much, it's actually kinda nice to see it.
Wouldn't have minded snow considering it's winter, but it's uncommon.
Btw, my main browser is Brave, I left that out.
