Since May 2011, a new privacy law has been approved by the European Parliament regarding the obligation for websites to request permission from users to use cookies. The law, now called EU Cookie Law (European law on cookies), is a fine to some previous directives (precisely from 2002) on user rights in web communications and services, on personal data and the protection of privacy. Here the full text of the law for consultation.
