New Privacy Policy??

[PollyannaMom]

Is anyone else getting a new privacy warning on here that it wants you to agree to?

Looks like this:

I sent a screenshot to Corey earlier.

I notice this as well. Not clicking anything until I know what is going on.

@WebmasterCorey what is this?

Thank you!

Same.

Per Corey, it's Google's new standard. I did not accept all but went to manage each item separately under Show Purposes.

Simply click "Show Purpose", then you can reject the non-required (whatever the term is) ones in one click.

Thanks. So far, I haven't seen this verbiage (show purposes) on other sites. Usually I have the option to reject all.

Something similar shows up on most new websites I visit for the first time, I just do NOT click the 'accept' button and it usually lets you continue using their site. Varies by site, but sometimes you just click anywhere else and it goes away or there are some other options. On some sites, the things you select only apply until the next time you re-boot your computer so it becomes a game to reset your options every time you use their site and doubt most want to bother with that if you use multiple sites. Honestly, have no idea what has changed and/or what most of those things mean from a practical standpoint when using a website. Much of it reads like legal mumbo/jumbo to protect the owners of that site.

I do the same for sites where it's a "one time" visit. Sites that I routinely visit, I'll go through the steps to only accept the required.

That worked for me on the desktop computer (how I was able to post this thread) because it didn't cover too much of the screen, but I couldn't use the DIS on my phone at all.

Once I knew it was legit, I did click through to not accept things, and it has stopped popping up on either device.
