Unlike other cookie consent managers and React components, this component automatically disables tracking for Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and other tracking services. This is done by blocking the tracking scripts from loading. Therefore, you don't need to manually disable tracking, saving you hours of work.
React Cookie Manager automatically blocks embedded iframes that would otherwise load cookies without consent, such as:
- YouTube videos
- Vimeo videos
- Google Maps
- Social media embeds (Twitter, Instagram, etc.)
- Third-party widgets and tools
When a user hasn't consented to the required cookies, these embeds are replaced with user-friendly placeholders that:
- Explain why the content is blocked
- Provide a button to manage cookie settings
- Inform users to refresh the page after accepting cookies
- Maintain the same dimensions as the original content
This ensures your site remains GDPR-compliant while providing a seamless user experience.
npm install react-cookie-manager
# or
yarn add react-cookie-managerThe component requires its CSS file to be imported in your application. Add the following import to your app's entry point (e.g., App.tsx or index.tsx):
import "react-cookie-manager/style.css";import { CookieManager } from "react-cookie-manager";
import "react-cookie-manager/style.css";
function App() {
return (
<CookieManager
translations={{
title: "Cookie Preferences",
message: "We use cookies to improve your experience.",
}}
onManage={(preferences) =>
console.log("Cookie preferences:", preferences)
}
>
<YourApp />
</CookieManager>
);
}For Next.js applications, you'll need to use dynamic imports to prevent SSR of the cookie manager:
"use client";
import dynamic from "next/dynamic";
const CookieManager = dynamic(
() => import("react-cookie-manager").then((mod) => mod.CookieManager),
{ ssr: false, loading: () => null }
);
// In your Providers component or layout
export function Providers({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) {
return (
<CookieManager
showManageButton={true}
translations={{
title: "Cookie Preferences",
message: "We use cookies to improve your experience.",
}}
displayType="banner"
theme="light"
>
{children}
</CookieManager>
);
}
// In your page component
import { useCookieConsent } from "react-cookie-manager";
export default function Home() {
const { showConsentBanner, detailedConsent } = useCookieConsent();
return (
<div>
<button onClick={showConsentBanner}>Manage Cookie Settings</button>
{detailedConsent && (
<div>
Analytics:{" "}
{detailedConsent.Analytics.consented ? "Enabled" : "Disabled"}
Social: {detailedConsent.Social.consented ? "Enabled" : "Disabled"}
Advertising:{" "}
{detailedConsent.Advertising.consented ? "Enabled" : "Disabled"}
</div>
)}
</div>
);
}import { CookieManager } from "react-cookie-manager";
import "react-cookie-manager/style.css";
function App() {
return (
<CookieManager
translations={{
title: "Would You Like A Cookie? 🍪",
message:
"We value your privacy. Choose which cookies you want to allow. Essential cookies are always enabled as they are necessary for the website to function properly.",
buttonText: "Accept All",
declineButtonText: "Decline All",
manageButtonText: "Manage Cookies",
privacyPolicyText: "Privacy Policy",
}}
showManageButton={true}
privacyPolicyUrl="https://example.com/privacy"
theme="light"
displayType="popup"
cookieKitId="your-cookie-kit-id" // Optional: Enable CookieKit.io integration
onManage={(preferences) => {
if (preferences) {
console.log("Cookie preferences updated:", preferences);
}
}}
>
<AppContent />
</CookieManager>
);
}import { CookieManager, useCookieConsent } from "react-cookie-manager";
function CookieSettings() {
const { showConsentBanner, detailedConsent } = useCookieConsent();
return (
<div>
<button onClick={showConsentBanner}>Manage Cookie Settings</button>
{detailedConsent && (
<div>
Analytics:{" "}
{detailedConsent.Analytics.consented ? "Enabled" : "Disabled"}
Social: {detailedConsent.Social.consented ? "Enabled" : "Disabled"}
Advertising:{" "}
{detailedConsent.Advertising.consented ? "Enabled" : "Disabled"}
</div>
)}
</div>
);
}The floating cookie button provides a persistent, accessible way for users to manage their cookie preferences after they've made their initial choice. It appears as a small, animated cookie icon in the bottom-left corner of the screen.
<CookieManager

theme="light" // or "dark"
// ... other props
>
<YourApp />
</CookieManager>- 🎯 Automatically appears after initial consent
