Traficom’s statement (in Finnish):

Suomessa evästeistä informoimista tai niiden hyväksymistä varten ei vaadita erillistä ponnahdusikkunaa. Suostumuksen voi pyytää käyttäen valitsemaansa teknologiaa (esim. selaimen/sovelluksen asetukset tai ponnahdusikkuna), kunhan suostumusta ei pyydetä valmiiksi rastitetun ruudun kautta.
