How to combine django model with function based view

I have a django view in which I wish to read a cookie

urls.py:

path('', views.home, name='home'),

views.py:

def home(request):
    context = {}
    url = 'home/home_page.html'
    cookies_allowed = request.COOKIES.get('cookies_allowed', '0')
    return render(request, url, context)

models.py:

class HomePage(Page):
    template = "home/home_page.html"    
    banner_title = models.CharField(max_length=100, blank=False, null=True)

But, of course, the render function does not contain any context data and I get a blank page.

How do I get the data defined in the model into context?

views.py

def home(request):
    context = {'data': HomePage.objects.all()}
    url = 'home/home_page.html'
    cookies_allowed = request.COOKIES.get('cookies_allowed', '0')
    return render(request, url, context)

home_page.html

{% for obj in data %}
    {{obj.banner_title}} <br>
{% endfor %}

views.py:

def home(request):
    context = {}
    url = 'home/home_page.html'
    cookies_allowed = request.COOKIES.get('cookies_allowed', '0')
    data = ModelName.objects.all()
    context = {
                'data':data
    }
    return render(request, url, context)

models.py:

class ModelName(models.Model):

banner_title = models.CharField(max_length=100, blank=False, null=True)

Look, model is using to define the table field as a model attribute. So there is no template or anything in here.
