Preference Center

The Preference Center is the full-screen panel where users can view and toggle individual consent categories. It opens when the user clicks "Manage Preferences" in the banner.

What's in the Preference Center

  • A list of all consent categories
  • Description of what each category is used for
  • A toggle for each non-necessary category
  • A list of vendors under each category (optional)
  • Save button

Configuring categories

Categories come from your Policy (see Policies). Each category can have:

  • A display name
  • A description (shown to the user)
  • Whether it's always-on (Necessary)

Showing vendor details

To show which vendors are in each category:

Banner Builder → Preference Center → Show vendor details → On

When enabled, each category has an expandable list of vendors with their names and purposes.

Re-opening the Preference Center

Users can re-open the Preference Center at any time via:

JavaScript:

ConsentForge.openPreferenceCenter();

HTML attribute:

<button data-cf-action="open-preferences">Cookie Settings</button>

Add a "Cookie Settings" link to your footer so users can always change their preferences.

Preference Center without the banner

You can embed the Preference Center inline (not as an overlay) for dedicated privacy settings pages:

<div id="cf-preference-center-inline"></div>
<script>
ConsentForge.renderPreferenceCenterInline('#cf-preference-center-inline');
</script>
