New consent form - UPDATE: Link to FAQs here

LaraGransnet can you please explain why when I toggle each button to grey and then submit my choices, they are completely ignored! Each time I look at my privacy settings my choices have disappeared.

Is there only one button to deal with - that's all I can see?

Such a faff, I am not surprised people are considering leaving. I have been on GN from the very beginning and never had anything like this to contend with.

Snap, Bathsheba!!!!

As usual, not thought through properly before introducing it.
Heaven help people, who are not IT literate.☹️

Well so far I have had to scroll through this ruddy form three times, on three different devices. Why is that necessary? Surely my choices should be recorded and apply to any/all devices I use?!

Ditto . Is the SUBMIT button working when we have laboriously changed each slide bar?
It doesn’t Confirm or acknowledge our changes” does it?

Well that was all a total waste of time and effort. Having gone through the whole thing this morning and opting out if everything, plus legitimate interests , the whole lot has defaulted back to the original so has been done again. What a shambles.

So what exactly is the legitimate interest which enables an advertiser to use our details, over-riding our selection of grey not blue and resetting our choices unless we reselect grey each time we sign in?

Glad I chose grey! But don't really understand what I was saying "NO" to............can we have a simple explanation, please?

I’m another who needed their husband on the job?. I would never have worked out grey was ‘ no’ and ‘blue’ was yes. Really confusing!!

Mamma mia.....

Hi, FH here (with a new username; I flounced as I was bewildered), are things the same as before the form, but we now have to consent? X

Clear your cookies ?

I just closed all pages and deleted history on my iPhone then logged into GN the consent page came up and I changed all settings to grey...........I assume they are now off will I have to do this each time I log-in?

If you clear your cookies etc. the form will reset and pop up again for you to read through.

Earlier today I clicked on the form thinking it was a variation on the usual cookies type of form, apparently it is not so I too would like to know how to access the original form please. There are now several threads regarding this new consent form therefore would it be too much to ask that they be combined to stop even more confusion. I would also like to say that I think the introduction without prior warning is unacceptable as most "considerate" websites that I use including banking give prior warning of downtime, upgrades and modifications so what justification can there be for gransnet not to do so?

Same ‘silverLining’

Everything that had a coloured button by it if you touched that button it went grey so I presumed that to be a NO
Am I wrong ?

I hope I said no to everything it really wasn’t clear, I put it on grey. Is that correct!?

These things usually say that you can edit/change your choices at any time (or words to that effect). I don't recall seeing that on the new pop up.

Is there an option for that, Lara?
