  • Staying Complaint Within Privacy Consent Laws
    Jun 4 2024
    This episode walks through how website privacy laws are changing and why businesses should get user consent for cookies. It emphasizes compliance is not just legal, but ethical and expected by users. The Importance of SEO Auditing in 2024 In this episode, Jon Ballard and Evan Facinger discuss privacy consent laws that have already existed in Europe and are starting to increase in specific states across the US. These laws are complex and vary by state, but generally they require websites to get user consent before using cookies to track user activity. The price for non-compliance in fines can be as high as $7,500 and that's just per site visitor. Companies shouldn't just comply with these laws to avoid fines, but also because it's the right thing to do and what users expect. We also recommend that companies update their privacy policies and cookie consent (https://www.cookieyes.com/welcome/?ref=yjviodq) forms to reflect the latest laws and technologies. All websites across the internet are affected by this so we urge anyone who owns a website for their business to tune in. Need Help Becoming Compliant?
