Pages - Customising the Consent Banner
The DPG consent banner allows you to obtain opt-in consent from your visitors on their first visit to your website. Use the Cookie Policy page to provide more information on cookies collected. Create a Privacy Policy page to provide your visitors with a clear and transparent explanation of any data collection and processing.
Changing banner style
The consent banner appears on your first visit to the site. If you've already accepted the cookies, you can trigger the banner again via the Cookie Policy page.
A link to the Cookie Policy page can be found in the footer of the site. For compliance, this should be easily accessible by visitors in case they wish to withdraw consent at a later date.
In the Design section, choose the Cookie Policy page from the page navigation. Once the page has loaded, find the Edit consent preferences link and click it to trigger the consent banner. In the side panel go to Page then Privacy tab. Here you can choose between the different banner styles. Click the Save button to apply and view a different style.
