When does the GDPR require data subjects consent to a cookie?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Data protection and privacy are complementary, but not the same thing.

A very repeated phrase is: ''It is possible to have security without privacy, but it is not possible to have privacy without security''.

Privacy is a right that must be protected, and Data Protection are the measures that will be used to achieve this protection.

I practiced a similar question where consent was only needed for cookies that store personal identifiers. Is that the case here too?

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I'm leaning towards option D, sticking to agreed procedures, but I'm not totally confident that's the best answer.
