ANSA.it Offers Subscriptions for Users Opting Out of Cookies

Italian news agency ANSA.it is presenting users with subscription choices for those unwilling to accept profiling and tracking cookies. The agency offers an accessible "Consentless" subscription, alongside other plans, allowing continued access to its news services.

This move by ANSA, a news provider established in 1945 with a presence both in Italy and internationally, reflects a common industry practice of balancing user privacy with the need for revenue generation through advertising and subscriptions. The agency emphasizes its long-standing commitment to journalistic information dissemination.

Users who opt out of cookies will be notified upon reaching a content limit within a 30-day period. While they can still view all headlines, accessing additional content requires waiting for the next period. The agency assures that advertising will be present but non-profiled and manageable through preference settings, alongside thematic newsletters curated by ANSA's editorial teams.
