Hello colleagues,
recently I have received a warning. It is about the security of the website.
We would like to raise your attention to the following data protection issue on your website.
——–
Third-party cookies set before interaction with consent notice
——–Under Article 5 Paragraph 3 of the EU ePrivacy Directive (Directive 2009/136/EC) and respective implementations of the Directive into national law of the EU member states, the setting of individual cookies on the user’s terminal equipment that are not strictly necessary for the functioning of the website is only allowed if the user has given his or her prior consent. Such consent has to be given in advance via a meaningful interaction by the user.
According to our automated analysis, your website does provide users with a cookie notice or consent form, but the cookies are set before any meaningful interaction of a user with the consent form takes place.
This lack of explicit consent may indicate noncompliance with EU ePrivacy requirements.I have two questions:
1. how do you make the pop up warning jump before the web page opens?
2. how can I take into account in this pop-up window the possibility of manage cookies, as is for example on this picture? The Manage Cookies is the last obligation for EU.Best Regards

Hello Yobo, I have already described this problem, see quotes:
According to our automated analysis, your website does provide users with a cookie notice or consent form, but the cookies are set before any meaningful interaction of a user with the consent form takes place.
This lack of explicit consent may indicate noncompliance with EU ePrivacy requirements.I got this info from the
CISPA Helmholtz Center for Information Security

These colleagues do security analysis of websites.
In my case, some cookies have already been loaded and then the user gets a message that this page uses cookies. According to EU law, the customer must first give his consent, then the cookies may be loaded.Best Regards

Hello yobo,
I bought and installed a module (MegaCookies v1.1.0 – from presta.design ) from the third party provider. After that I got problem with redirection on PayPal payment, see picture. Can you help me please? I don’t know from which side this problem comes. Either your module is not working correctly because of this new installation, or the problem is on another side. I have also sent this question to the module developer.

Hello yobo,
I have renamed the paypal folder and installed the module again. Unfortunately it did not help. I still get this error message, that’s why I can’t get the module MegaCookies activated. German law obliges me to use such module, but incorrect work of paypal module did not allow me to install this module.
I ask you for help.PS I have now disabled the PayPal module.
Best Regards
