# Adding information to your cookie providers

## Why is this necessary? <a href="#docs-internal-guid-3037aba5-7fff-07f3-beb3-3e2b8a66be4c" id="docs-internal-guid-3037aba5-7fff-07f3-beb3-3e2b8a66be4c"></a>

It is necessary because the GDPR requires you to make information available to your user about:

* Information about the provider, link to their privacy policy and contact details
* What the provider is used for and how they are processing data,&#x20;
* location of processing&#x20;
* transfer to third countries

You should provide clear information about all providers including cookie providers, local storage providers, session storage providers etc.&#x20;

IMPORTANT: The information must be in the same language as your website, i.e if your website is in Danish, the information should be in Danish.

## How to add information to your cookie providers

Adding any additional information to a cookie provider is easy to do in Openli.

To begin, log in to your Openli account on[ openli.com](https://app.openli.com/employees/sign_in)​

Next click "Cookies" in the side menu on the left to go to the cookie management:

<div align="left"><figure><img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/IckRbXpKLwgMe20TcR74MJrFG1bLmAnQTbQv4gJt2NBJxVx66B1BiXVRYPTdz5kzCDVAFxuALibX_hs8rnV7irBGwOoozGRtcY84P73M7wTQGcKhw-cYGDAQgJ_pS8yMWccRsobG-OFxREMbWEjfnXc" alt="" width="188"><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

Then select the provider of the cookie you want to edit. In this example we have chosen Openli. Now you can add the information:

It is very important that you **end by clicking "Save changes"** in the top right corner of the provider page to save any changes made to the cookie's information. Once this is done you'll have successfully updated your provider’s information.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.openli.com/docs/cookie-consent-management/adding-information-to-your-cookie-providers.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
