Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Consent is established as the legal basis for non-essential tracking technologies for EEA/EU/UK users, meaning those technologies cannot lawfully be deployed without an affirmative user action.

⚠

Interpretive note: The strictly-necessary carve-out is an independent proposition noted in omitted_material; the canonical claim focuses on the consent requirement for non-essential technologies.
