The Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) cover the use of cookies and similar technologies for storing and accessing information on a user's computer or mobile device. PECR sets out strict rules about notification and consent. Failure to comply could lead to enforcement action by the Information Commissioner including a fine of up to £500,000.

This live and interactive webinar explains the law on cookies and similar technologies in detail. It will be useful for Data Protection Officers and legal advisers as well as those who operate or manage an online service e.g. a website or mobile app.

This webinar will cover:

• Types of cookies
• Consent and what is “strictly necessary”
• Information and storage rules
• Exemptions
• Guidance and enforcement action

Participants will also complete a quiz at the end to test their knowledge
