One script tag, on any site
- Paste one script tag into the head of your site, before your analytics tags.

- Loads asynchronously, so it does not block your page from rendering.
- Works with React, Vue, Angular, Svelte, Next, Nuxt or plain HTML, and the JavaScript API fires events when consent changes.
