> **A lightweight, dependency-free GDPR Consent Management Platform with native Google Consent Mode v2 support.**

The free, open-source alternative to Cookiebot, OneTrust and Iubenda: full control over your
consent management, no vendor lock-in, no monthly fees. One script tag, zero dependencies,
**no backend required**.
- 🔒 **GDPR first** — no cookies before consent, 12-month expiry, URL/CSS sanitization
- 🎯 **Google Consent Mode v2** — native, denied-by-default, zero configuration
- 🎭 **Script blocking** — hold tracking scripts until the user consents, hot-swap on change
- 🧩 **Works everywhere** — `
```
That's enough for the zero-config banner. Place it as the **first script in ``**,
immediately after ``, so trackers are blocked before they execute.
### Option B — npm
```bash
npm install openconsent
```
```js
// ESM
import { createOpenConsent } from 'openconsent';
const cmp = createOpenConsent({
config: {
banner: {
privacyPolicyUrl: 'https://yoursite.com/privacy-policy',
cookiePolicyUrl: 'https://yoursite.com/cookie-policy'
}
}
});
```
```js
// CommonJS
const { createOpenConsent } = require('openconsent');
```
In the browser build the singleton is exposed as **`window.OpenConsent`**
(`window.RSCMP` is kept as a backwards-compatible alias).
