Warning
If your organization requires GDPR compliance, Cookie Message may not be sufficient. If this is the case, and your organization requires explicitly consent for tracking purposes, then you will need to enable the new Cookie Consent feature.
Note
See this FAQ for more information on how PathFactory supports GDPR compliance, or this FAQ for more questions about the Cookie Consent feature.

Note
You cannot have both Cookie Message and Cookie Consent enabled on the same content track.
  1. Select the Content Track you want to edit.
