The Spanish Data Protection Agency (AEPD) has published an update to its “Guide on the use of Cookies”, which includes important changes for companies to bear in mind with regards to the correct implementation of cookies.
The first version of the AEPD Guide was published in November 2019. However, only a few months later, the AEPD has felt it necessary to update its Guide, basically to mirror the Guidelines that the European Data Protection Board issued in May on the topic of consent.
The main changes made to the Guide on the use of Cookies are the following:
The AEPD establishes a term of three (3) months for companies that do not currently comply with the updated criteria in the Guide to adapt their cookies to the new guidelines. The new criteria must be implemented by 31 October 2020 at the latest.
The complete text of the new “Guide on the use of cookies” is available on the AEPD’s website.
