Admin Tools version: 2.4.2
Description of my issue:
As a resident of the UK, I have to comply with the recently-introduced EU ePrivacy Directive, which requires me to declare and obtain consent for any cookies my site applies to visitor's browsers. This includes all javascript and html5 cookie equivalents and any other similar local storage methods.
The only cookies excluded from this are cookies "essential for the operation" of my site, and I have to declare what these are and what they are used for.
Could you please confirm whether any cookies are used after Admin Tools are installed on a website, what type of cookies they are and whether they are used purely for security purposes, to make the site function, to or for any additional purpose, and if so what that ourpose is. I am of the opinion that I should only define security cookies for my visitors as "To make your visit to our site as secure as possible", and purely administrative cookies as "To enable the site to operate" so I do not need more than that kind of level of detail.
Thanks
