They may claim that, but I don’t think it makes them GDPR-compliant. IMO, it’s in conflict with https://gdpr-info.eu/recitals/no-32/:

”If the data subject’s consent is to be given following a request by electronic means, the request must be clear, concise and not unnecessarily disruptive to the use of the service for which it is provided.”

and https://gdpr-info.eu/issues/consent/:

”The withdrawal must be as easy as giving consent.”




Well, it might not be compliant, but the splash screen is their attempt at compliance. It doesn’t show in the US.
