Webinar | Cookies after the EU's Digital Omnibus

Are You Ready for the Next Generation of Tracking Rules?

Due to high interest, we are offering an additional session of our webinar "Cookies after the EU Reform" on 24 April 2026.

Cookie banners, consent layers, tracking tools – just when you thought things were settling down, the EU is planning the next major shake-up.

With the Digital Omnibus, Brussels is re‑defining the rules for cookies, tracking and consent – with very real consequences for anyone using online tracking, analytics, advertising technologies or CMPs.

In our compact webinar our IT law experts Dr Hendrik Schöttle and Dr Claudio Calabro will show you:

• what the planned reforms mean in practice for your current setups, and
• where new risks and opportunities are emerging for your business.

You will leave the session with concrete guidance on what you should already be changing today. Participation in the webinar is free of charge.

What you can expect:

The draft Digital Omnibus reforms the interaction between the GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive and introduces new requirements for cookies, tracking and consent management – in particular through the proposed Articles 88a and 88b GDPR.

Key question:
Will this reform finally mean fewer cookie banners – or are we heading towards a new generation of even more complex cookie, tracking and consent rules?

We will provide a practice-oriented assessment and answer, among others, these questions:

• Future use of cookies & tracking:
  How may cookies, tracking technologies and online identifiers be used in the future – and where will the limits lie?
• “Digital-Omnibus-ready” consent setups:
  What will cookie banners, consent layers and CMP setups have to look like in order to meet the new requirements?
• Compliance & liability risks:
  Which risks will remain despite the reform, where will they increase – and in which scenarios can things become particularly precarious in relation to supervisory authorities?
• Strategic adjustments now: Which technical, organisational and contractual adjustments to cookie and tracking strategies should companies already be preparing, and in what order of priority?

We look forward to your participation!
