Usage

Include the script tag somewhere within the page.

<script src="/gpt-consent.v0.0.1.js"></script>

Include an overlay element with the id consentOverlay somewhere within the page that will be displayed to users that have not provided consent. This must include elements with the data-consent-action="opt-in" and data-consent-action="opt-out" attributes that are used to handle the users choice and close the prompt.

<div id="consentOverlay" style="display:none">
  <div class="prompt">
    <h1>Can we use your data to tailor ads for you?</h1>
    <p>
      Our partners will collect data and use cookies for ad personalization and measurement. <a href="/privacy" target="_blank">Learn how</a> we and our partners collect and use data
    </p>
    <button data-consent-action="opt-in">Yes<button>
    <button data-consent-action="opt-out">No<button>
    You can change your choice at any time.
  </div>
</div>

Include a button (or any clickable element) to re-display the prompt somewhere on the site. Any element with the 'data-consent-action="choose"' attribute set will have the click handler attached.

<div class="footer">
  <span data-consent-action="choose">Change your ad personalization choice.</span>
</div>
