Automatically Disable Tracking

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.

Installation

npm install react-cookie-manager
# or
yarn add react-cookie-manager

Importing Styles

The 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";

Basic Usage

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>
  );
}

function App() {
  return (
    <CookieManager

        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",
