The stages include:

  1. Create — Fill in cookie information, configure the banner and privacy preferences.
  2. Submit — Save the cookie configuration.
  3. Review — Inspect the cookie before making it available.
  4. Publish — Make the cookie live and generate the embed script.
  5. Embed — Add the cookie script to your website.
  6. Unpublish (optional) — Take the cookie offline.
