Ok, so on the suggestion... Can you add the links to the necessary policies to the cookie notice?

I am glad you brought up Ireland. Facebook removed 1.5 billion users data from Ireland. I assume that someone was paid to upkeep this data, so obviously, some jobs were lost in Europe. https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2018/04/facebook-removes-1-5-billion-users-from-protection-of-eu-privacy-law/
