REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: EU ePrivacy Directive (2002/58/EC) Art. 5(3) and national implementations (PECR in the UK, Telemediengesetz in Germany) require informed prior consent for non-essential cookies. GDPR Art. 7 and Recital 32 require freely given consent, which may be compromised if service functionality is conditioned on cookie acceptance ('cookie walls'). CCPA/CPRA §1798.135 requires a 'Do Not Sell or Share' opt-out mechanism. The EDPB has issued guidance (Opinion 5/2019) that cookie walls violate the freely given consent requirement.
