Frequently Asked Questions

Is a Cookie Policy required under GDPR?

Yes โ€” under GDPR, a Cookie Policy is legally required. You must obtain consent from users before placing non-essential cookies, and your policy must clearly explain which cookies you use and why.

What cookies does a Discord Bot website typically use?

A typical Discord Bot website uses: essential session cookies, analytics cookies (Google Analytics, etc.), functional preference cookies, and marketing/advertising cookies if you run paid campaigns. Each type must be disclosed in your Cookie Policy with its purpose.

Do I need a cookie consent banner if I have a Cookie Policy?

Under GDPR, a Cookie Policy alone is not sufficient. You must also implement a consent mechanism (cookie banner) that allows users to accept or reject non-essential cookies before they are placed.
