Cookie consent in Slovenija

Consent and privacy law in Slovenija

In short
Slovenia was one of the last EU states to adopt a national implementing law, finally enacting ZVOP-2 in 2023, several years after the GDPR took effect. Until then the Information Commissioner, the IP-RS, applied the GDPR directly with older national provisions. Cookie rules derive from the Electronic Communications Act and require consent for non-essential cookies. Slovenian guidance requires opt-in consent, clear information in Slovenian, and an easy reject path. The IP-RS is an active authority that publishes opinions and handles complaints. Controllers should keep consent records and avoid pre-ticked boxes.
Status

GDPR applies since 25 May 2018, with national ZVOP-2 in force from 2023
