title: User acceptance of cookies required if using $_SESSION?
body: <p>I have a site developed in php that only uses <code>$_SESSION</code> to store user information temporarily while they are logged in. Does using <code>$_SESSION</code> require the site to get user acceptance of "cookies" to comply with the EU cookie law?</p>
  
  <p><strong>UPDATE:</strong> My question is different to me. Note the key words "required" and "EU" in my question versus "acceptable" and "UK" in the previous question. The answers in the previous question are opinions only on legal compliance in the UK but include very useful information that will allow me to research my European Union (EU) question further. Thank you for providing reference to that question. </p>
