# Inth vs react-cookie-consent

react-cookie-consent is a small React component that shows a banner and remembers the click. Inth Consent runs it inside your application through c15t, with the records hosted for you. Which one fits depends on what your team wants to own.

**Ask your coding agent**

```text
Audit this codebase for react-cookie-consent and estimate a move to Inth Consent, built on c15t. Find the react-cookie-consent setup and any Consent Mode and tag manager wiring, list every analytics, advertising and chat tag, then report what c15t would replace, which consent category each tag needs, and what the page would stop loading before consent. Use https://c15t.com/docs/comparisons/react-cookie-consent and https://c15t.com/docs/integrations/overview.

Tick the needs that matter to your team and see which platform meets more of them.

| Your needs | Inth Consent | react-cookie-consent |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Consent state in your React and Next.js code | ✓ c15t packages expose consent state to your components and your server | – A banner component with props and styles; categories are up to you |
| Hosted consent records | ✓ Every saved choice, region and policy version in your Inth dashboard | – A cookie value for the banner decision |
| Script, iframe and network blocking | ✓ Script loader, iframe blocker and network blocker tied to consent categories | – Left to your own callbacks |
| Google Consent Mode v2 | ✓ Denied defaults and consent updates through the Google integrations | – Not built in; you wire gtag consent yourself |
| Works without a backend | ✓ Offline mode runs in the browser; hosted records when you want them | ✓ Runs in the browser |
| Free and open source | ✓ c15t is open source and Inth Consent has a free plan | ✓ Free, open-source package |

Inth Consent: 6 of 6 needs. react-cookie-consent: 2 of 6 needs.

## Keep every tag you already run.

Inth Consent runs on c15t, which ships helpers for the analytics, advertising, chat and tag-manager tools you use today. Each one loads only when its consent category is granted, so consent is enforced in your implementation rather than by a script bolted on top.

## Consent belongs in your implementation plan

Setup



Storefront · storefront.example.test

Connect Consent to your application

Point c15t at this project, map your services to consent categories, then watch for the first consent to arrive.

4 of 4 complete

Get the Consent runtime URL: Use this project’s hosted runtime URL when you configure c15t.

Map services to consent categories: Decide which category each analytics, advertising and chat tag needs before it loads.

Install c15t in your app: Install the package for JavaScript, React or Next.js and connect it to this project.

Receive your first consent: Completes automatically when consent activity arrives from your application.

You wire consent into the app once. After that it ships with your releases.

Install c15t, tell it which [category each tag belongs to](https://c15t.com/docs/integrations/overview), and point it at your hosted project. That is the setup. With react-cookie-consent the banner and its logic live in the browser, which is fine until your server or app code needs to know whether marketing consent was given. Either way, test it: accept, reject, change your mind, and check what actually loads.

| Consent categories | Built-in model and APIs | App-owned |
| Growth path | Framework state, records, policy packs and IAB TCF | Simple notice UI |

## Moving from react-cookie-consent?

Bring your current setup and the tags you load. We’ll map the switch with you. If you want a head start, have your coding agent draft the plan.

**Plan it with your coding agent**

```text
Plan a migration from react-cookie-consent to Inth Consent, built on c15t, for this codebase. Find the react-cookie-consent setup and Consent Mode wiring, map every tag to a c15t integration and consent category, propose how to run c15t on a staging route while react-cookie-consent stays live, and list what to verify before cutting over. Use https://c15t.com/docs/comparisons/react-cookie-consent and https://c15t.com/docs/integrations/overview.

### Can we keep Google Ads, Analytics and Tag Manager?

With Inth Consent, yes: the Google integrations set denied defaults and send updates when a choice changes. react-cookie-consent leaves that wiring to you, so check what your tags do after each choice.

### Can we migrate existing choices and records?

Check the actual formats, identifiers, retention requirements and interpretation of each saved choice. Plan that work explicitly rather than assuming one platform can import another platform’s records.

### Where should we start?

Define the consent layer you need to replace, map your integrations and compare the full cost and ownership model. Then test both implementations against the same visitor journeys.
