For the last hour every time I click on anything on the site, up pops a privacy pop up, I’ve accepted cookies a dozen times and looked at the other options but I’m still getting the pop up from Gransnet saying ‘your privacy is important to us’ how do I stop it please? ?

Anyone else getting it?

Glad to see it’s not just me! It even happens when I go to the next page of comments on a posting! Grrh! Every move I make I am asked to accept . Even coming on here, there it was,before I signed in.

Seems to have stopped at last.

That’s what I don’t understand, tanith! Why me grin?

Any ideas, GNHQ? Please......

Still happening to me, too! I’m using Safari on iPhone.

tanith Fri 27-Sept-19 09:04:09

I don’t get why it’s only happening to a few people? Is everyone else immune?

tanith Fri 27-Sept-19 09:02:58

Still happening all the time for me gggrrrrrrrr!

Has it been sorted? I’ve been on GN for a few minutes and it hadn’t popped up yet?

NfkDumpling Wed 25-Sept-19 20:28:15

No, I don't get it that often Lisagran, just when I first open a page and I never get it on my phone.

NfkDumpling - logging onto a site and seeing the privacy thing once would be reasonable - but for me, and others, it’s popping up every time you click on a thread, click on a post, etc etc angry on GN

It’s not just GN. Every site I’ve looked at this morning has started with the privacy thing. Bank, local council, Adini.... everything except Facebook. I’m wondering why not Facebook, is my privacy not important to them?!

Luckylegs Wed 25-Sept-19 11:12:10

I can’t stand this, sorry I’m off!

tanith Wed 25-Sept-19 10:56:26

I popped in hope but still no joy I hope you manage to fix it as I’m really missing GN ?

Lisagran Tue 24-Sept-19 16:39:46

Thanks you for responding - hope it can be fixed as it’s almost impossible to use GN while this is happening!

Hi everyone

Sorry this is taking longer than we expected to fix. We thought it was just an issue with Safari but it seems from the posts on this thread that this is happening across all browsers. We are continuing to work on a fix and will let you know as soon as we have a solution.

Best wishes

Luckylegs Tue 24-Sept-19 10:13:47

It’s still happening! Every time I go to the next page or go back or anything, it’s driving me mad!

BlueBelle Tue 24-Sept-19 08:20:39

It’s started happening for me too not every time but too frequently it’s very annoying You shouldn’t have to agree more than once you don’t on any other sites Even an annual agreement would be fine

Marydoll Tue 24-Sept-19 08:14:32

I've been on GN this morning without any problems, then out of the blue it popped up, when I was reading something!

It also doesn't matter which browser I'm on, it's still happening! angry
Once you have set and saved your preferences to comply with GDPR regulations , there should be no need to keep stating your preferences every time you post.

I give up ?

Lisagran Mon 23-Sept-19 16:16:31

Any ideas, GNHQ?!

Lisagran Mon 23-Sept-19 12:26:02

Bump!!

Lisagran Mon 23-Sept-19 11:12:02

I’ve tried Google, Safari and Bing - still happening angry

Jessity Mon 23-Sept-19 10:39:04

Got it again just now, grrr. I share the feeling of wanting simply to abandon Gransnet.

tanith Mon 23-Sept-19 10:31:36

I'm using Chrome and nothing has been changed it's never happened before why? Why? Why? I can't even read posts without it popping up ???
