Cookies are an essential part of the online experience, but they must be used with care.

Uncertainty about cookie requirements, a lack of internal expertise and new pressure from the ICO are putting pressure on getting cookies right. Our GDPR Cookie Compliance Service gives you a clear, independent view of your current set-up-so you can fix what’s wrong and prove you’re in control.

In January 2025, the ICO announced they were reviewing the top 1000 websites for cookie compliance, proving they are cracking down on PECR and GDPR compliance.

Our experienced consultants can help you comply with GDPR, PECR or cookie laws in other jurisdictions at the same time as meeting your business objectives.

Cookie Assessment Service

What will the service cover?

1 Full website review

We will review your website to establish what cookies are firing and when, including which are strictly necessary and which need consent to be dropped.

2 Highlight of all website cookies

We will highlight any non-compliant cookies such as those with known risks or that are not included in your cookie policy/notice.

3 Compliance review

We will review your cookie banner and opt-in rates to ensure your banner complies with the law and is neither encouraging nor discouraging consent (the former is unlawful, the latter is a waste). This review can be done for international laws that affect cookies in addition to the UK GDPR and PECR.

4 Provide clear next-steps

We will provide you with a clear, straightforward report that explains your obligations, how well you currently address them and provides an action plan to help you improve. We also recommend reassessing your cookie compliance annually to keep up to date with changes to your website and case law.
