Add Footer Links for Cookie Policy in NetSuite Commerce

Integrate footer links for Cookie Policy and Settings in your NetSuite web store to comply with SuiteCommerce Analytics Data consent requirements.

·2 min read·11 views·View Oracle Docs

To meet SuiteCommerce Analytics Data consent requirements, your web store's landing page or any selected pages must include vital footer links:

  • Cookie Policy: This link directs customers to your cookie or privacy policy page. It can be added using Site Management Tools (SMT) by placing it as a text or link content item in the footer area. Alternatively, you can configure it through your theme's footer link settings.

  • Cookie Settings: This link opens a cookie preferences dialog, where customers can view or modify their consent settings. To facilitate this, the SuiteCommerce Cookie Consent extension offers a custom content type (CCT) called Cookie Modal Link.

Adding the Cookie Modal Link

To include the Cookie Modal Link in your site:

  1. Ensure the Cookie Modal Link content type is enabled in SMT.
  2. Log in to SMT.
  3. Navigate to the page where you wish to place the cookie modal link.
  4. Click the Edit Mode icon from the Site Management toolbar.
  5. Click the Add icon from the toolbar.
  6. Select the Cookie Modal Link from the available content types.
  7. Drag the Cookie Modal Link to your site's footer area.
  8. Publish your changes to make them live on your site.

Here’s an example of how the footer links to the cookie policy and cookie settings might look:
