Choose a data processor

When our scanner picks up an unclassified cookie due to some scanner limitations, you need to categorize this cookie and choose its data processor.

In this article, we’ll show you how to do it.

Before you start

Here are some important things to keep in mind before you start:

• You must add a data processor to save the cookie classification.
• You need to include a data processor to inform users about who handles their data and to gather their consent. For first-party cookies, this is typically your website. For third-party cookies, it’s typically a company that offers a service, such as ads, and sets this cookie on your website.
