How to change cookie categories to opt-in or opt-out

Steps to take to change cookie categories to be opt-in or opt-out

When your Clym account is created, cookie categories, such as Advertising and Entertainment, are set to be opt-in or opt-out based on existing regulations and requirements. While it is generally recommended to keep these settings in place to remain compliant, you may wish to edit these settings at some point.

Changing cookie categories to be opt-in or opt-out is an easy 3-step process:

 

 

1. Sign in to your Clym Portal

You should have received a magic link in your initial onboarding email. Please click Sign in from the email to get started. Alternatively, navigate to Clym's home page and click on Sign in in the upper right-hand corner.
