Experimental project

This is a sandbox project, which contains experimental code for developer use only.

The EU Cookie Law module implements Diego La Monica plugin EUCookieLaw to aims at making your Drupal website compliants with the EU-Italian cookie regulation.

The European and Italian law about use of cookies requires an opt-in system, effectively meaning that the consumer must give his or her consent before cookies are stored in their browser.

Requirements

This module depends on and so requires the following modules
- Dynamic Cache (https://www.drupal.org/project/dynamic_cache)
- Libraries API 7.x-2.x (http://drupal.org/project/libraries)
- Help (Core)
- EUCookieLaw plugin (https://github.com/diegolamonica/EUCookieLaw)

Recommended modules

- Modules Weight (https://www.drupal.org/project/modules_weight):
when enabled, provide an admin interface to view and order the modules
execution order. This way you can do some checks regarding the Dynamic Cache
module.
The main Dynamic Cache module must run AFTER all other modules
(higher weight), while the Bootfix module must run BEFORE all other modules
(lower weight).
