NOYB to end website cookie banner terror

Is your web site and marketing GDPR and PECR compliant?

The Austrian based organisation NOYB – European Center for Digital Rights has commenced its campaign to rid web sites of unlawful cookie banners.

The GDPR and PECR were meant to give users full control over their data and ensure that company/organisational marketing was only received by those who actually request it.

The NOYB current focus is on web sites that make it difficult to reject non-essential cookies, but Concrew Training also notes that many web sites don’t even give you the choice to opt out.

In short these companies and organisations are likely to be in breach of the GDPR and PECR and risk fines of up to 4% of global turnover or Euro 20 Million.

With the NOYB moving to report some 10,000 companies a year no business or organisation can afford for their sales and marketing teams to ignore the GDPR and PECR.

Concrew Trainings’ short courses on GDPR and PECR raise participants’ awareness of the legislation and rules relating to data protection and ePrivacy. Our full day face-to-face and 3 module online courses provide in depth knowledge and understanding.
