You are telling the cookie function to expire after 0 seconds. (3th parameter)

You are right, I thought "0" was permanent.
Changed to YEAR constant and work as spected.
PHP Code:
set_cookie('myweb_gpdr', 'accepted', YEAR);
Regards!

No. If the cookie expires after 0 seconds, you cannot use the cookie data at all.
If set to 0, the cookie will only last as long as the browser is open.
