Enable automatic Cookie deletion
The automatic deletion of cookies & localStorage items can be enabled in Menu > CMPs > Edit > Legal Settings > Delete Cookies. You can choose between:
- do not automatically delete cookies
- automatically delete all cookies
- automatically delete only selected cookies
Once enabled, you will find a new column in Menu > Cookies which either shows an eraser icon

(to signal that this cookie will not be deleted). Click on the icon to change the mode for each cookie.
How the system will delete cookies & localStorage
Before deleting cookies or localStorage, the system will check if the associated vendor has consent. If consent is given, the cookie/localStorage item will not be deleted.
If the cookie is set to be erased, the cookie will be deleted in the following cases:
- Cookie/localStorage is unknown and “Delete Cookies” setting is set to delete all cookies
- Cookie/localStorage is known and set to be erased
Please note, that it is not possible to erase third party cookies.
