Configure the SC Cookie Consent Extension

After enabling the feature and installing/activating the extension, you must set up the cookie consent text and options. This setup configures the information shown to your shoppers as they decide to accept or disallow certain cookies.

Important:

The SuiteCommerce Analytics Data feature and Cookie Consent extension don't include default consent-management text. Any text you see in the images in this guide are for example only.

Web store owners are responsible for adding all consent information. Owners must also ensure the text complies with privacy regulations applicable to the countries, states, or regions in which they do business.

To Enter Text for Your Cookie Consent Menu:

  1. Go to Commerce > Websites >Configuration.

  2. Use the Websites and Domain lists to select the web store.

  3. Click Configure.

  4. Open the Extensions subtab.

    The Cookie Consent fields appear.

  5. Enter text or make a selection for each field provided.

    If you leave a field empty, it doesn't appear in the cookie consent banner or settings menu.

  6. Click Save.

Tip:

These fields can use Rich Text Format (RTF) for bold, italics, and to add links to other pages or websites.
