Greeting
Greeting is a habitual exchange of gestures and words, and it confirms who you are and relationships between you. In many societies, it is common that you do not need to stop what you are doing to greet an acquaintance or person who you often talk with, every time you see them. In contrast, when you meet someone who you have not seen for a long time, you spend a bit longer to greed them for making up for a long absence.
挨拶というものは、身振りやことばの習慣的な交換のことであり、それによってたがいの地位や親しさの度合いなどが確認される。多くの社会では、しばしば顔を合わす間柄や単なる顔見知りの間では、そのたびに立ち止まって、他の活動を一時停止することはないが、反対にしばらく会わなかった知人に出会うと、その分だけ挨拶に時間をかけるのが一般的である。

spend time + participle (doing something)
GA greeting is a habitual exchange of gestures and words, and it conaffirms who you are and the relationships between you and the person you greet.
"Greetings are a habitual.." is also okay.
I would say "affirms" instead of "confirms"
I would translate
それによってたがいの地位や親しさの度合いなどが確認される
as:
.. and it affirms the social position and intimacy of both parties involved.
