Just got this annoying distracting blue square with a shield and tick in at the left bottom of the screen,something to do with cookie protection and only on mingle2 full site ,

Yep, me too. Can’t remove it either.

I hate stuff like this

Same here

Same here, irritating.

On mingle2 full site with chrome don't see it on another browser Puffin that I have

Using the full site on Android tablet, with Chrome browser. And I can see that bloody yoke

Same here as it is not on anything else it must be Mingle web people

Or just the server, they are using?

I feel left out. I don't see it.

ACCEPT

Problem is there is no choice to REJECT.
Which means you either accept, ignore or you stop using the site.
Its an ultimatum to accept their cookies and allow them and their partners to collect your data.

The thing is, a site's privacy policy is usually included in the TOS agreement you already accepted when you signed up to be a member.
This new notification could be a couple different things.

1. There may have been a change to the TOS privacy policy which requires an updated acceptance.
2. There may be legislation requiring notification of privacy policies which change or are invasive.
3. It may be a gateway to a type of invasive tracking software which has infected the site's servers.

I'm gunna click accept and see what happens.
Then I'm gunna check my antispyware scan results, virus scan results, cookies and running processes.

OneTrust choices comes up when you accept and click the lil blue check mark now on the page.
You can then set some preferences on the specific areas of concern.
Everything is auto-set to Always Active but I turned off the 3 radio buttons.

It's on my tablet and phone both just on chrome ,it's so distracting , like a mosquito, using the Puffin browser for Mingle fro the time being

I use Chrome so I don't have that problem.

I have Chrome and I DO have that thing.
Since yesterday I think. I switch off all I could in the whole list. But the frigging logo is still there.

I have chrome and haven't seen it

I don’t use Chrome, I use Safari so it doesn’t matter which browser you have

I don't see it.

Device = android
Browser = Samsung internet

Max number of adblockers allowed to be active at once.

It does not happen with Puffin browser , the most annoying thing is that it slides in with every screen change so dam distracting

At the bottom of every M2 page is a link to

The blue OneTrust widget doesn't need to be on every page.
For some devices it could affect the page load times.
Not being able to remove the widget makes it invasive (just like the ads it supports).
