Information Google collects. We want you to understand the types of information we collect as you use our services. We collect information to provide better services to all our users — from figuring out basic stuff like which language you speak, to more complex things like which ads you’ll find most useful, the people who matter most to you online, or which YouTube videos you might like. These regulations are designed to help your website visitors protect their privacy and determine how their behaviors online are used by others. Under the GDPR, if a contact of yours is an EU citizen, they must be given notice that you're using cookies to track them (in a language they can understand), and they need to consent to being tracked.
Data protection considerations
The Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA) is designed to regulate the use of personal data by businesses and other organisations. The DPA is the main legislation implementing the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) in the UK.
Anyone processing personal data must ensure that it is:
From 25 May 2018, organisations that determine the purpose for which personal data is processed (i.e. data controllers) must pay the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) a data protection fee unless they are exempt. To find out more about the data protection fee, see the guidance on the ICO's website.

Cookies are files stored on a computer’s browser by websites which can be used for various purposes, often related to marketing or advertising.
GDPR
If you use cookies to uniquely identify a device or the person using that device, it is considered personal data under the GDPR. This means that cookies used for analytics, advertising and functional services come within the ambit of the GDPR. To be compliant, you'll need to stop collecting cookies that uniquely identify individuals or find a lawful ground to collect and process that data, for example, consent.
Such consent must be:
It must be as easy to withdraw consent as it is to give it. This means that if you want to tell people to block cookies if they don’t give their consent, you must make them accept cookies first. You must also give people the option to change their mind, i.e. by providing an opt-out option. This is especially important if you wish to implement the 'soft opt-in' option.
Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations
The Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) set out certain online marketing obligations and govern the use of cookies (also known as the Cookie Law).
Under the PECR, websites cannot use 'non essential' cookies unless the consent of the user is expressly given - in other words, users must first opt-in before such cookies can be deployed.
Non-essential cookies are those which are used for analytical purposes or to assist with advertising. Even cookies which customise a website (such as providing a greeting message) are deemed to be non essential.
Essential cookies are generally those which enable an online checkout process to work properly - or if required for technical or security purposes.
Failure to comply with the Cookie Law can lead to fines of up to £500,000. There are also smaller penalties, such as being sent an information notice or an enforcement notice.
A website privacy policy helps to reassure visitors that their personal data is protected and can assist in compliance with the GDPR and the Cookie Law.
