2. To enable the Cookie Policy for all users, toggle Enable Cookie Policy for All Users to On.

   To review the look-and-feel of the Cookie Policy, Save the changes, then choose a Preview option.

   

3. Language is set as the system default. Use the drop down to add the Cookie Policy for other language variations.
