In May a new law was passed in the EU which means websites have to declare what cookies are used on their website.

The Twurch of England website highlighted the fact that there was a lack of guidance published by dioceses to assist parishes with their websites. 

So, here is the link to their excellent article about how to comply with the cookie law:

What to do next

• Follow the advice in the article to check what cookies you use on your site
• Update your privacy policy to reflect this

You'll notice we've updated our own privacy policy on this site to be compliant (see bottom of page). Feel free to use the wording on your own site if you need to.

If you need any further guidance please feel free to contact our Digital Media Adviser, Dan Kemp on dkemp@cofe-worcester.org.uk
