2. Statutory Governance Framework (PECR & UK GDPR)
In the United Kingdom, storage and access technologies are governed by Regulation 6 of the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003 (PECR) and the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR).
Under this framework, optional tracking technologies require prior explicit consent, whereas technologies strictly necessary for providing an explicitly requested service or adapting appearance/functionality to a user's choice qualify for statutory exemptions. We never classify marketing or advertising technologies as strictly necessary.
