Cookies on RootsChat - can 'Reject All' be added please
« on: Wednesday 29 March 23 09:43 BST (UK) »
A few years ago, a cookie banner appeared on RootsChat and the number of vendors to turn off was so great I stayed off. Then it changed and it was simpler to turn off cookies. Now it's back to the panel of a few years ago with so many vendors it's taken me 5 mins to switch them all off.

Is it possible to have a 'Reject All' button like many sites do?

Thanks, Flemming.

I agree, it does take too long to tick all of the boxes and a “reject all” box would be of great help as this is reappearing on a regular basis.

Thanks,

Nervous of logging off in case the same panel comes up next time...  :( Hope the mods might be able to help here.

I haven't had to do this on Rootschat possibly because I have very rarely signed out and if I did it would have been some years ago.

A Reject All button on every website would be great.  Particularly if you only happen to visit it once when browsing for information.

As you said Flemming, it can take a ridiculously long time to turn off everything you don't wish to have.

Ditto for me last night after an update on my laptop...a drag & inconvenient when you just want to get on with whatever you set out to do.
