Question

Adobe Portfolio & cookie Banner in Europe and GDPR

Just build a quick website with some photos -freelance photographer- (right now unpublished) and having problems to find any legally correct banner options for adobe portfolio (opt in ) as I can just enter a simple text and this seams not to enough.

Is it possible to use Adobe Portfolio in Europe ? I am not using any tracking, Google Aanalytics and so on but I guess Adobe does. Adobe Fonts I guess are on an US Server so I would have to mention all this in my GDPR.

 Love Portfolio for his simplicity but when it comes to cookies and GDPR I am lost. Simple design with my pictures, one link to Instagram and a contact form. 

Any suggstions would be welcome. Thanks

    You can add the optional Cookie Banner to your landing page if it makes you feel better.

    GDPR is just there to raise awareness about cookies & other tracking scripts.  Ultimately, end users must decide to accept or delete cookies from their browser settings or not.  That's their choice.

    Thank you Nancy.

    Unfortuanetly it is not enough at least for Germanny as Adobe informed me that 2 performance cookies will always be active and cannot be disabled. So the viewer cannot decline these 2 cookies and as these are 3rd party non technical cookies it goes against german law.

    There are even more points as a cookie banner would not be enough anymore and so on but this is not the place and I guess the problem exists just in Germany maybe Europe.

    Thank you ... is there any chance to close the thread ?

    in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

    p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post if it helps you get responses.

    you're welcome.

     

    p.s. others may weigh-in and give specific advice but, in general, it isn't easy to customize portfolio.
