            "name": _("Analytics"),
            "optional": True,

• In your base template add the banner and the conditionals:

{% load cookiebanner %}
...
<body>
{% cookiebanner_modal 'vanilla' %}
...

<button onclick="document.querySelector('#cookiebannerModal').classList.remove('hidden')">change cookie preferences</button>

{% cookie_accepted 'analytics' as cookie_analytics %}
{% if cookie_analytics %}
<script>... javascript for matomo ...</script>
{% endif %}
</body>

You can create a custom template and use that instead of the default one.

• Create a folder cookiebanner/ and a file in one of your templates/-folders, e.g.: templates/cookiebanner/mytemplate.html
• Use {% cookiebanner_modal 'mytemplate' %}
