ULD SH: Länderübergreifende Datenschutz-Prüfung von Medien-Webseiten: Nachbesserungen nötig

https://www.datenschutzzentrum.de/artikel/1377-Laenderuebergreifende-Datenschutz-Pruefung-von-Medien-Webseiten-Nachbesserungen-noetig.html

Coordinated cookie practice review by German DPAs.

Observations on

  • Wrong order – loading cookies/trackers prior to consent
  • Wrong information – Insufficient or wrong information on user tracking on first level of the consent banner
  • Wrong consent – Insufficient scope of consent. Many cookies/trackers remain active even if users deny consent on first level of banner to “All”
  • No easy consent denial/revocation – Often no easy way to deny consent on first level of consent banner, or to close banner without a decision.
  • Manipulation of users – dark design patterns, nudging..
