(23) End-users should be offered a set of privacy setting options, ranging from higher (for example, ‘never accept cookies’) to lower (for example, ‘always accept cookies’) and intermediate (for example, ‘reject third party cookies’ or ‘only accept first party cookies’). Such privacy settings should be offered in a an easily visible and intelligible manner. General privacy settings that do not provide the end-user with information about the purpose for which information can be stored on the terminal equipment, or information already stored on that equipment can be processed, as a consequence of the configured privacy settings, cannot signify the end-user’s consent to the storing of information on the terminal equipment or the processing of information already stored on that equipment.
