What is E-Privacy Directive?
The e-Privacy Directive is a set of legislation in the European Union (EU) for data protection and privacy. It is officially known as the “Privacy and Electronic Communications Directive 2002/58/EC.” It governs cookie usage, email marketing, data minimization, and other data privacy issues.
It is not a binding legislation in and of itself, like other EU directives, but rather an exhortation to EU member states to adopt their own laws that accord with the directive.
The e-Privacy Directive was adopted in 2002 and revised in 2009. It will be replaced in the near future by the e-Privacy Regulation.
