If your website can be visited by European users and it installs cookies, you have to provide a compliant cookie policy (among other things). In terms of provenance, there are two types of cookies – first-party and third-party. Let’s see what are the requirements for this last category.
Unlike first-party cookies (put on a visitor’s device directly by the website he’s visiting), third-party cookies are placed on his device, not by the website he’s visiting, but by a third party.
Ad-retargeting services and social-button plugins are known to place third-party cookies in the browser and enable cross-site tracking and advertising.
Although not all UE member states share UK’s ICO guidelines (“if you use any third party cookies, you must clearly and specifically name who the third parties are and explain what they will do with the information”), it’s certainly the best and most common practice to do so.
