A cookie is a small file that websites store on your computer which allows them to track information about you. \u00a0For example it’ll allow the website owner to track which pages you’ve been to and in what order. \u00a0It can be used for lots of other things too. \u00a0The EU wants all websites to ask visitors for permission before storing this information. \u00a0There are two ways of doing this; implied or explicit.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Implied is when a notice is put on the site which says if you continue using this site, we’ll use cookies. \u00a0The other is where the user must press a button before cookies are used. \u00a0Both are acceptable. \u00a0However if you’re asking for personally identifiable information then explicit is the route to follow. \u00a0If it’s just working out what pages someone is using then probably implicit is the road to go down. \u00a0You can’t identify the person.<\/p>\n

You need to think about what policy you’ll adopt.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
To help Joomla Christian website owners we’ve developed a module that does this. \u00a0You still need to think about the policy for your site but this is a great starting point. \u00a0It’s free and comes with instructions. \u00a0You can find the module and the instructions below:<\/p>\n
