 * I am having an issue that the cookies aren’t clearing once the form is sent, 
   when we fill out the form a second time the data from the previous form comes
   across. Is there a way to clear the cookies upon loading the redirected completed
   page?

 * That is strange. Make sure you have the multistep tag on the last form. Something
   like `[multistep "4-4"]` it should be clearing the cookies. Are you sure it’s
   not just the browser auto-populating the form? You can monitor the cookies using
   the Chrome DevTools: [https://developers.google.com/web/tools/chrome-devtools/storage/cookies](https://developers.google.com/web/tools/chrome-devtools/storage/cookies)
   
   Look for the cookie named cf7msm_posted_data.
 * To clear it on your own you would have to add some custom javascript to the completed
   page and clear the cf7msm-step, cf7msm_posted_data, and cf7msm_prev_urls cookies.
