Additional instructions for this fork from Sandstream Development
This fork introduces additional categories dialog which is shown after clicking the Customize settings button on the initial cookie consent dialog. It also adds few additional features to handle some GDPR concerns - please see below.
Check GDPR example to see it in action.
npm install @sandstreamdev/cookieconsent
# or via yarn
yarn add @sandstreamdev/cookieconsentimport { CookieConsent } from '@sandstreamdev/cookieconsent';
import '@sandstreamdev/cookieconsent/build/cookieconsent.min.css';
// or
const { CookieConsent } = require('@sandstreamdev/cookieconsent');
require('@sandstreamdev/cookieconsent/build/cookieconsent.min.css');const CC = window.CookieConsent;For showing only specific categories, the following options need to be set:
const cc = new CC({
//...options,
showCategories: {
[CC.UNCATEGORIZED]: false,
[CC.ESSENTIAL]: true,
[CC.PERSONALIZATION]: false,
[CC.ANALYTICS]: true,
[CC.MARKETING]: false
}
})The example above will only show essential and analytics categories.
To wire the policies links mentioned in dialogs, please use the following options:
const cc = new CC({
//...options,
content: {
privacyPolicyLink: '/privacy-policy',
cookiePolicyLink: '/cookie-policy'
}
})As in GDPR, you need to provide the functionality to let the user change consents, so the consentSettingsElementId was added. It is the id of the element on the page that will reopen the categories dialog after clicking it.
const cc = new CC({
//...options,
consentSettingsElementId: 'btn-revokeChoice'
});All or the desired subset of categories' read more text can be changed.
const cc = new CC({
//...options,
content: {
categoryAnalytics: 'My new awesome text for analytics category',
categoryEssential: 'My new awesome text for essential category',
categoryMarketing: 'My new awesome text for marketing category',
categoryPersonalization: 'My new awesome text for personalization category',
categoryUncategorized: 'My new awesome text for uncategorized category'
}
});Check GDPR example to see the solution.
It also handles scenario when user revoke their consent.

And that's all from Sandstream Development. Enjoy!
Cookie Consent is a lightweight JavaScript plugin for alerting users about the use of cookies on your website.
It is designed to help you quickly comply with the EU Cookie Law, CCPA, GDPR and other privacy laws. We made it fast, free, and relatively painless.
Cookie Consent is seen over 2 BILLION times every month and is used on millions of sites, making this by far the most popular consent project on the internet.
We welcome community contributions and actively review pull requests.
Our parent company Osano actively maintains this open source project. Osano is a B-corp and is backed by millions of dollars in venture capital to create data privacy tools for the world. Our mission is to create transparency in data, please consider joining our team.
Ensuring that your website is compliant with various laws can be complicated. To effectively use any open source consent manager, you will need to do GeoIP lookups, adjust the consent types based on visitor location, callback and save consents in a database, and create callbacks to load scripts after consent is granted.
Osano offers a completely free hosted consent management platform, with additional features. If you have a high traffic website or need additional privacy tools, Osano offers paid plans as well. Unless you specifically need the open source tool, most website owners will be better served by the hosted version. If you use Osano for your business, please support continued development by purchasing a paid plan.
The hosted version of the cookie consent manager provides additional capabilities such as:
- Multi-lingual, translated into 38 languages and growing. Visitors automatically see the dialog in their browser or OS preferred language.
- Consents are stored automatically on the blockchain. REST API calls are available to developers to search and browse the consent records.
- 3rd party script blocking and loading does not require callbacks but is instead configurable from a dashboard providing developers with control over what the marketing team can enable or disable.
- Hosted on AWS Cloudfront with edges around the globe for
With version 4.0 you only need to attach the script as we've bundled everything together now. The initialization style has changed as have the callbacks (they're gone). Please see the text below to get started. Then, take a look at updated API via the docs.
import CC from "CookieConsent"
// or
const CC = require( "CookieConsent" )
const CC = window.CookieConsent
const cc = new CC({
//...options,
type : "categories"
})
cc.on( "initialized", ( ...args ) => console.log( args ) )
cc.on( "error", console.error )
cc.on( "popupOpened", () => console.log( "Popup Open" ) )
cc.on( "popupClosed", () => console.log( "Popup Closed" ) )
cc.on( "revokeChoice", () => console.log( "Popup Reset" ) )
cc.on( "statusChanged", ( ...args ) => console.log( args ) )
