Adsense is once again increasing the volume of its commanding voice: 'New Consent Management Platform [CMP] requirements for serving ads in the EEA and UK'. • TBD. Watch this space...
My WCC index page, shown below, is a typical example of how I handle ads across the site.
Index : World Chess Championship
The ad ('Download de whitepaper'; that's Dutch, believe it or not) appears between the site 'logo' and the link to Amazon. The small right-pointing triangle on the left side of the ad, leads to a page titled About this ad (adssettings.google.com). The small 'x' beneath the triangle removes the ad.
Ads are related to cookies. It's been eight years since the last time I looked at the European cookie monster. At that time I wrote two posts:-
- 2015-08-31: Fighting Cookies with Cookies
- 2015-09-07: Other Shareaholic Services
Since then, the European Union has introduced the GDPR, which stands for General Data Protection Regulation (wikipedia.org). The CMP requirements are a response to the GDPR. What does that entail for small web sites like mine? I'll look at that in the next post.
