It may be a good policy, but this is unrelated to the point on cookie consent made in the parent post. In fact the Juro site uses a variety of analytics cookies without even having a cookie banner in place, let alone any granular system for managing cookie consent.

Fine, here's a Dutch public broadcaster: https://www.npo.nl/

Upon opening it, you'll see a button labeled "Cookie-instellingen aanpassen". Clicking on it allows you to fine tune their cookie policy. "Functional" and "Analytics" categories can't be disabled, while the other (third-party) cookies can.

Thanks! Although I gotta say that they offer no options in relation to analytics cookies which is technically in breach of the e-Privacy directive as those cookies are not strictly necessary here. There are a few cookie solutions that can be used here - BT.com has a decent user flow.

The new e-Privacy Regulation coming into force next year will however, as presently drafted, provide an exception from consent for analytics programmes that only use gathered data on a per-site basis (so excluding Google Analytics for example).
