Solution

Cookie consent is required under GDPR and ePrivacy regulations for EU users. Implement a consent banner that: allows users to accept/reject non-essential cookies, doesn’t pre-check optional cookies, stores consent preferences, and blocks tracking cookies until consent. Use tools like CookieYes, OneTrust, or Cookiebot.
