It seems that no matter how many times I click on "OK", I cannot dismiss the message about Paizo.com using cookies that ends with a link to the Privacy Policy.

Also, I noticed that by default the option for getting notices about changes to already purchased PDFs was turned off. Does the European law mentioned in the e-mail really require you to do that? I would think that a notice about a change to an already purchased PDF would be more like an auto recall notice (albeit with far fewer safety implications) than a sales e-mail.


I suppose notification emails fall under the opt-in rule.

I am able to dismiss the cookie message (in Waterfox), but every time I open a thread in a new tab, it appears again, which is a little bit annoying.

Hello you two!

We're looking into both issues made mention of here, David could you let me know which browser you're currently using for tracking the indismissable cookie message?

The PDF emails should have retained their previous settings for if we should send them or not based on what your previous email option was, we're looking into it currently.

I'm also seeing the the same issue with the always returning Privacy message, especially when viewing the site on my iPhone 6!

The message about cookies cannot be dismissed in Internet Explorer.

It is long gone in Google Chrome.

I am currently looking at the site with Internet Explorer, and can also not dismiss the message.

Erik, I have this problem with Internet Explorer, wile with Firefox I don't have it.

With Fireforx instead starting yesterday I to get a error message, most of the time when replying to a thread, but sometime even when posting a new message.

It say, "La pagina che si sta cercando di visualizzare non può essere mostrata in quanto non è possibile verificare l’autenticità dei dati ricevuti." (Italian)

Translated: "The page you are trying to visualize can't the show as it wasn't possible to verify the authenticity of received data".

Sometime I get that error even when browsing other parts of the server, like my profile.

This may be a problem with Internet Explorer. I have noticed a similar issue on various non-Paizo websites.
