subscriber vs user law ( cookie law )

Do we need consent from the subscriber or from the user?

Regulation 6 states that consent should be obtained from the subscriber or user.

In practice you may not be able to tell who is the subscriber and who is a user – which means you may not be able to distinguish between consent provided by the subscriber and by the user. The key will be that valid consent has been provided by one of them.

PECR does not say whose wishes should take precedence if they are different. If there appears to be a conflict – for example, if a subscriber or user previously consented but now the current user of the same device objects – it would seem sensible to rely on the most recent indication. This would mean you always respect the current user’s preferences, even if you cannot be sure of the subscriber’s preferences.

this information above has changed it used to quote that the user has precedence over the subscriber

I cannot be required to use third party computers.

What is the limitation or extent of this FV (or anyone else)?

I'm thinking about the impending Health and Work Programme and trying to get a head start with stymieing their efforts. So, would the providers' computers be third party and so I shouldn't have to use them? Or, because they effectively become the DWP for the duration of your sentence with them, are they in fact not third party and so it doesn't apply?[/quote]

I think this information answers your question.

DWP contractors cannot mandate a claimants to create a UJ profile

Participant has not created a profile and public CV in UJ
111.Where the participant states they have not created a profile and public CV in UJ, you
must not mandate participants to apply for jobs in UJ where the method of application is
to select a CV in UJ and send it on line through the service. You cannot mandate
participants to create a profile and public CV in UJ if they haven't done so already.

In conclusion: you can only be mandated to apply for jobs via UJ if the DWP contractor has a UJ cookie enabled IAD device and you have a UJ account. This means you cannot be mandated to use third party computers to search other jobsites.
