You'll update the cookie banner's wording and links, then check the choices visitors see. Visitors can accept, reject or customize optional cookies. The settings let you edit the wording and listed cookies; your agency connects those choices to the services used by your site.

- Check the policy links, categories and cookie entries against the information your agency supplied.
