Hello everyone. Nice to see so many of you here already. Um I am so excited to be here today because I haven't been doing these Versel community sessions in a while.

So I'm very excited to to be here and to see so many of you here already. Um, if you um are watching this on X um and want to engage with us in the comments, uh just head over to community.versal.com. Uh there should be a banner there

advertising this session. Just click on sign up now and um sign in with your Versal account to unlock the chat. Um and yeah, let's see where everyone is calling in from. Nice. I already see some activity in the chat. That's that's wonderful. Hi everyone. Um Amy, over to you. Uh just a reminder, if you are going to hang out in the chat, just remember to be respectful, follow our code of

conduct. We want to keep doing these. We want it to be a nice space for everyone. So just keep that in mind. And with that out of the way, it is my honor to welcome to the stage our guest today, Christopher Burns, founder of Consent. Welcome, Chris. Hi. Hi. Hi Chris. How are you doing today? Good, good. Um quite a busy day we could say. Definitely. We're really excited for this session. People are already asking for cookies in the chat. So

Oh. Um you'll have to tell me how it goes because I don't think I actually have a link to it. So that's also a good thing. So if all the criticism is negative, I just can't see it. Wonderful. Okay, over to you. Awesome. Awesome. Um so hi everyone I am the founder and CEO of uh consent and I'm here to speak to you today about uh developer first cookie banners um and

the project that I created called C-15T. Um so let's get started. So the humble cookie banner is it a necessary evil? Um, Robboto Studios uh put this uh video together uh today and I just had to stick it in there as a demo. Obviously demonstrating opening the cookie banner, the the consent model, customizing the consent. Um, but who actually is it for?

Who what parties are involved in creating a successful uh consent cookie banner roll out? So the problem is that it's a vicious cycle where so many different departments are normally involved in say the cookie banner. You have the marketing department who want to roll out new analytical or conversion tools uh when their cookie banner blocks the uh

tracking and they lose conversion. You have the legal department and the lawyers who um obviously are running the GDPR uh compliance for the company, the CCPA and all these different kind of privacy laws, making sure that their website is up to scratch. You have the designers and the the UX people normally like designing a cookie banner for these more premium websites that are uh more um well experime uh experience-based.
