Additionally, third-party widgets such as Youtube or Flickr may install cookies depending on their configuration.

As an alternative, Google offers an extension called "Keep My Opt-Outs", which permanently bars ad companies from installing cookies on the user's computer.

In 2002, the NAI released guidelines for use of Web beacons - small images or pieces of code used to track visiting and traffic patterns and install cookies on visitors' machines.

It used equipment installed at BT to, in real-time, intercept their customers' communications and install cookies, Phorm cookies, on every single domain in their browser that they went to in order to tag them and track them and profile them deeply and pervasively.

Its are also installed ceramic craft workshops, sausage factories, cookies and candy, breweries, canned foods (jams, peaches, etc..)

That's right, just like Phorm, some other third party, likely an advertiser, has installed cookies linked with my domain that were not set explicitly by me.

And it says we don't store the user's IP address; we don't install cookies.

Key elements of the regulations are that you must obtain consent before installing cookies on a user's machine and in some cases you must have the customer's consent to be able to send them electronic marketing.
