# Add a cookie consent banner to a Confluence site

To add a cookie consent banner to a Confluence site published with Capable Sites, open the site's **Settings**, choose **Integrations**, turn on **Cookie consent popup** and select **Save changes**, then Update and Promote. Visitors can accept all, reject all or choose by category, and analytics and widgets wait for their answer.

## Before you start

* You need to be a Confluence admin or a collaborator on the site.
* Set up the integrations you want first. The banner only offers the categories they need: Analytics for Google Analytics, Functional for the Jira Service Management and Released widgets, and all three when Tag Manager is connected.

## Steps

1. Open Capable, choose **Sites**, open your site, and select **Settings**, then the **Integrations** card.
2. Under **Analytics**, turn on **Cookie consent popup**.
3. If you use Tag Manager and want its own consent settings to decide which tags fire, turn on **Tag Manager handles consent**.
4. Select **Save changes**.
5. On the site's **Overview**, select **Update**, wait for it to finish, then select **Promote**.
6. Open the live site in a private window and check the banner appears in the bottom right corner.

## What happens next

Visitors see **Accept all**, **Reject all** and **Customize**. **Customize** shows a checkbox per category and **Save choices**. Each page also gets a **Cookie settings** link in the footer, so visitors can change their mind. Withdrawing a category reloads the page and clears the cookies Capable's integrations set for it.

Choices are remembered for 12 months. Statuspage sets no cookies, so it always loads.
