 * Dear Support,
 * We are currently trialling your plugin on our live site.
 * All seems to be working very well but we are surprised how few cookies the automatic
   cookie scanner finds on our site.
 * We compare the cookies the cookie scanner finds with the cookies we find on our
   live site _[ redundant link removed ]_, if we open Chrome Inspector > Application
   > Storage > Local Storage or Cookies.
 * There seem to be many more cookies within Chrome Inspector.
 * Why does the automatic scanner find so few?
 * Should we manually set up these missing cookies manually? Will they be blocked
   until user consent, if we add them manually?
 * Many thanks for your help with this.
 * Kind regards,
 * Pairfum London

 * Hi [@pairfumlondon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pairfumlondon/),
 * The scanner can find the cookies that are set in the site when accessing via 
   an incognito or private window. Session cookies that appear when logged in might
   not be available. You can add them to the cookie list manually and add their 
   script to corresponding categories if you require to block them.
