EU cookie law – is your site legal?

EU legislation means you must inform your users, if you are using cookies to track your users on your website. At sites.ku.dk this is only the case, if you have activated a plugin that uses cookies for example a statistics plugin like Google Analytics.
It is not very difficult to comply with the law, just follow these three steps:

  1. Activate the plugin “Cookie Law Info” on your site (found in the menu “plugins”)
  2. Setup the plugin to point to a page of your choice, when they press “Read More” eg. mitsite.sites.ku.dk/privacy
  3. Write an explanation for your users on the page you’ve pointed the plugin to, along the lines of: We use cookies to track statistics about the usage of this site, in order create a better user experience.
