you don't need all that info just so i can play koc !!! if you do, why?

if i don't click the agree button, i guess i will be seeing that POPUP on every page

i will not click the agree button. next you will be asking the name of my favorite pet, mothers maiden name, mailing address and other personal data that can be used to track me. you will eventually be able to steal my identity.

i am still not sure why you need all that info .. cookies are obvious. ip address is a must also .. but why do you need to know my browser or opreating system?? i might use numerous computers and phones for instance.

[LordCounter]

are you proposing they make this website comply to EU law? what are you, a communist? shame on you

[bloodpirate]

i know nothing about EU law .. how will this data be stored? who all will have access to it?

[LordCounter]

well ok it's actually a valid question

The EU Cookie Legislation requires 4 actions from website owners who use cookies:

When someone visits your website, you need to let them know that your site uses cookies.
You need to provide detailed information regarding how that cookie data will be utilized.
You need to provide visitors with some means of accepting or refusing the use of cookies in your site.
If they refuse, you need to ensure that cookies will not be placed on their machine.

fare enough .. but why .. browser and operating system name and version

[bon]

Every site you visit stores that information including browser/device/system information.

No one has access to it other than myself and rolz. While we utilize checking IPs for admin purposes browser/device/system information also helps us with detection methods.

what else besides my IP address, browser and operating system name and version and cookies.

do you gather ..

it does say personal information about yourself like .. that stuff, not just that stuff.

the thing is, you can gather all that stuff anyways .. without me clicking the accept button. so whats with all the drama all of a sudden .. because of the EU?

[Rolz]

It's law. We have to comply if we serve europe.

afaik we have our hands tied, i don't like it either
