The cookie consent mechanism discloses sharing of usage data with advertising and analytics partners and provides a cookie preference center allowing users to opt out of non-essential cookie categories. The effectiveness of this mechanism as a valid consent mechanism may require evaluation under applicable privacy regulations including GDPR and CCPA.
Interpretive note: The adequacy of the cookie consent mechanism under GDPR freely-given consent standards and CCPA opt-out requirements depends on the technical implementation and regulatory interpretation in applicable jurisdictions.
The updated terms remove the explicit "Your Opt-Out Rights" button that previously allowed users to opt out of data sales and targeted advertising. In its place, the revised language establishes a general cookie consent framework requiring users to click "Accept" to allow cookies for site navigation, usage analysis, and marketing efforts. Users retain the ability to choose not to allow certain cookie types, but the prior dedicated opt-out mechanism for data sales and targeted advertising is no longer explicitly described in the accessible terms interface. If you wish to control cookie preferences, you can click on the cookie settings to modify consent for different types of cookies; however, strictly necessary cookies cannot be declined as they are required for core website functionality.

1. REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: The cookie consent mechanism engages GDPR Article 6 and the ePrivacy Directive (and its forthcoming replacement, the ePrivacy Regulation) for EU/EEA users, which require freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous consent for non-essential cookies. CCPA and its amendments (CPRA) are relevant for California residents regarding the sharing of browsing data with advertising partners. The FTC has oversight over consumer data practices in the U.S. 2. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The cookie consent banner as described provides an opt-out mechanism for non-essential cookies, but the adequacy of the consent mechanism under GDPR (including whether it meets the standard for freely given consent where 'Accept' is more prominently presented than refusal) may require evaluation. Sharing data with advertising and social media partners may constitute selling or sharing personal information under CCPA. 3. JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU/EEA users face heightened exposure; data protection authorities in EU member states (including the Irish DPC and French CNIL) have issued guidance and enforcement actions regarding cookie consent mechanisms. California residents may have rights under CPRA to opt out of sharing of personal information with third parties for cross-context behavioral advertising. 4. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Organizations deploying or linking to the AI21 website should assess whether data flows to advertising and analytics partners are disclosed in their own privacy notices and data processing agreements. 5. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal and compliance teams should evaluate the adequacy of the cookie consent mechanism under GDPR and ePrivacy Directive requirements, including whether the consent banner design meets regulatory standards in applicable EU jurisdictions. CCPA opt-out rights for California users should also be assessed.
