* #### Use a Sheet to manage customer privacy consent
##### Description
You can apply changes to customer consent by using the \`applyTrackingConsentChanges\` API. > Note: Requires the \[\`customer\_privacy\` capability]\(/docs/api/checkout-ui-extensions/2025-07/configuration#collect-buyer-consent) to be set to \`true\`.
