</template>

<script setup lang="ts">
const {
  cookiesEnabled,
  cookiesEnabledIds,
  isConsentGiven,
  isModalActive,
  moduleOptions,
} = useCookieControl()

// example: react to a cookie being accepted
watch(
  () => cookiesEnabledIds.value,
  (current, previous) => {
    if (
      !previous?.includes('google-analytics') &&
      current?.includes('google-analytics')
    ) {
      // cookie with id `google-analytics` got added
      window.location.reload() // placeholder for your custom change handler
    }

  { deep: true },
)
</script>
//  plugins/analytics.client.ts

Cookies

Every property that includes a { en: ... } value is a translatable property that could instead only specify a string ('...') or other locales as well ({ de: ..., uk: ... }).

{
  description: {
    en: 'This cookie stores preferences.'
  },
  id: 'p', // use a short cookie id to save bandwidth and prefixes to separate
  isPreselected: false // `true` is not GDPR compliant! This flag does not enable any cookies, it only preselects the cookie's modal toggle. The default is `false`.
  name: {
    en: 'Preferences' // you always have to specify a cookie name (in English)
  },
  links: {
    'https://example.com/privacy': 'Privacy Policy',
    'https://example.com/terms': 'Terms of Service',
  },
  src: 'https://example.com/preferences/js?id=<API-KEY>',
  targetCookieIds: ['xmpl_a', 'xmpl_b'],
}
