Basic ConsentManager Class

The ConsentManager class is designed to manage user consent for various tracking functionalities commonly used in web analytics and advertising. This revised version includes enhancements for managing consent settings based on user-defined groups.

Installation

No installation is required for this class as it is designed to be used within a JavaScript environment.

Usage

To use the ConsentManager class, simply instantiate an object of the class, optionally passing in groups of consent settings:

// Example with predefined consent groups
const consentGroups = {
  analytics: ["analytics_storage"],
  targeting: ["ad_storage", "ad_user_data", "ad_personalization"],
};

const consentManager = new ConsentManager(consentGroups);

This will create a new instance of the ConsentManager class with the specified consent groups and default consent settings applied.

Methods

consentDefault()

• Sets default consent preferences for each group.

consentDenyAll()

• Updates consent preferences to deny all tracking functionalities for each group.

consentGrantAll()

Example

// Instantiate ConsentManager with predefined consent groups
const consentGroups = {
  analytics: ["analytics_storage"],
  targeting: ["ad_storage", "ad_user_data", "ad_personalization"],
};

const consentManager = new ConsentManager(consentGroups);

// Example: Grant consent for all tracking functionalities in the "targeting" group
consentManager.consentGrantGroup("targeting");

// Example: Deny consent for analytics tracking
consentManager.consentDeny("analytics_storage");

Note

• This class assumes the presence of the window.dataLayer object for tracking purposes.
• Ensure that appropriate tracking scripts such as Google Analytics are integrated with your application to utilize the consent management functionality effectively.
