REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: The EU ePrivacy Directive (2002/58/EC, as amended) and UK PECR require prior informed consent for non-essential cookies. GDPR Art. 6(1)(a) applies as the lawful basis for consent-based cookie processing. The ICO has issued enforcement notices against cookie banner dark patterns. The FTC Act Section 5 applies in the US for deceptive tracking disclosures. California CPRA defines tracking pixel and cookie-based data sharing as potential 'sharing' of personal information triggering opt-out rights.
