Getting this on ipad safari

Click away, come back, there it is.

There's granular consent and granules of granular 😂

I just came here to post about that.

It’s a new pop up asking permissions for cookies. I don’t want to consent to any so change the options and ‘submit’ but it comes back every single time I go in the site, and it doesn’t remember the settings I’ve chosen so I have to change them and ‘submit’ every time I visit!

silverstarfish · 06/01/2021 07:28

I’m also on safari on an iPad.

Brinksmanship · 06/01/2021 07:29

Me too. And it is irritating because I’d previously gone through and declined all the advertising cookies so it’s resetting that and I cba to have to reset all those every time coz it takes ages. (Or maybe that’s the strategy?)

silverstarfish · 06/01/2021 07:30

(and it’s regarding advertising cookies, so not consenting to the ones listed shouldn’t be the reason I have to do it each time).

HotDiggidy2017 · 06/01/2021 08:14

Can’t believe this is back to requesting it so often AND resettting your choices every time. Mumsnet this is simply not acceptable!
In the last 5 minutes I have been required to resubmit my data choices 3 times, not to mention that your NON COMPLIANT system means I have to click 44 times to ensure you do not share my information with very man and his dog. Completely unacceptable that they still have not put a reject all button.

Whatpaint · 06/01/2021 08:19

Yep twice last night and again this morning. And still no ‘Reject All’ option.

It takes a long time to go through and reject each one.

Not happy at all MNHQ.

Again safari on iPhone here.

LeSangeEstDansLarbre · 06/01/2021 12:00

Safari on iPad, and the same here. We had all this in the autumn and in the end I deleted my account because of it. Massive GDPR implications here with preferences not being saved or acted on.

Just bring in a Reject All button, like many other sites I use, and sort out the iOS incompatibility.

OHolyTights · 06/01/2021 12:41

I too have had the cookie message and again immediately after just completing it and submitting. It is a nuisance, fiddly, time-consuming and off-putting.

Come on MNHQ, be kind to your people and give us a Reject All option. So many other websites do that, even ones who are seen as 'lesser'!

The most important thing you should consider @MNHQ is you are hindering those Mumsnetters who need to clear their search history after every time they use this site or do other sensitive searches. I'm not talking about just for privacy - I'm talking about for personal safety, even life, for those in domestic violence, domestic abuse or coercive control situations. They really need the Reject All option and asap. This is especially so during lockdown when they are more likely to be cooped up with their abusers.

BabbleBee · 06/01/2021 13:41

This isn’t the first time it has happened. Why has it suddenly come back and needing cookie consent every time?

HotDiggidy2017 · 06/01/2021 14:41

@BabbleBee I beleive the ‘excuse’ previously was that they were adding/amending vendors.... I just had to do it all again to revisit this thread about it 🙄

@OHolyTights too true! They seem to purposefully make it difficult to preserve our privacy and it certainly is not compliant without a reject all button.

AdaColeman · 06/01/2021 16:39

Yes, I am also suffering with this irritating pop up, almost every time I change page or Board on iPad with Safari.

This all happened and was sorted out only a couple of months ago, so the technical crew must know how to resolve the same problem this time.

FancyPuffin · 06/01/2021 16:49

This is at least the second time this has happened for me as well. It’s is irritating and is forcing me to just keep accepting consents unless I want to constantly reject them.

Blondeshavemorefun · 06/01/2021 17:46

Also getting this every time I click on mn

Brinksmanship · 06/01/2021 18:33

Safari. iPad.

LilyMumsnet · 06/01/2021 18:46

Hi all

We're really sorry that this has come back - we're investigating now. Please do bear with us. Flowers

Sirzy · 06/01/2021 19:44

I have just come to ask about the same! Hope a solution is found

BalladOfBarryAndFreda · 06/01/2021 19:46

Me too. Annoying

PinkBuffalo · 06/01/2021 21:11

I just came to report this too!
Sorry mnhq but this happening to me too, every time I come to mn it is asking me this screenshot I did
I just accept all but it still appears every time

Cookie message all the time?
earthyfire · 06/01/2021 21:22

It's really getting on my nerves, in fact I've left the site numerous times after visiting because I can't be bothered to go through the cookie settings. Why doesn't it remember the settings I've chosen and rejected? It's as if the site is trying to convince me to agree to them all!

Brinksmanship · 06/01/2021 21:35

I feel a bit annoyed because I went through and deselected everything which took ages. And now it’s asking again. It feels a bit like a deliberate ploy to get us not to deselect the advertising stuff.

LeSangeEstDansLarbre · 06/01/2021 21:50

It’s every few minutes now. It’s not saving my preferences each time, so it’s effectively forcing me to allow a load of cookies I don’t want to in order to carry on using the site. I deregistered my account then, and am on the brink of doing the same now.

AcornAutumn · 06/01/2021 21:57

It was every few mins when I reported it and now again.

Best give up for the night!

Blondeshavemorefun · 07/01/2021 05:00

Driving me nuts. Everytime I’m on mn
