Right, and then the legal teams tell me they don't care, and we should put up the cookie banner anyway. I feel like you didn't read my original comment.

That just means your legal team is lazy or incompetent. I work for a massive company that handles extremely sensitive PII and we don't have a cookie banner, because we don't need to have a cookie banner. GitHub doesn't have one, Gitlab doesn't have one.

I've built software used by EU governments, and we don't use a cookie banner for our login cookies either.

If your legal team genuinely suggests that, it's likely your company uses the login cookies for some additional purposes.
