c15t vs Cookie Control

Choose c15t for native web components, individual vendor choices and backend ownership. Compare CIVIC's Cookie Control Premium and v9 accurately.

Get started

Choose c15t for consent your application team can shape.

c15t is the stronger fit when consent must share your product's components, state and release process. Your team can design the interface, review vendor rules and choose the backend.

Cookie Control is CIVIC's consent product. Premium offers scan-based setup and a hosted configuration wizard. Its v9 edition uses a JavaScript configuration that developers manage.

Use the same components and state as your product.

With c15t, the banner, account settings and embedded content can share one consent state. Your team can test these interactions with the rest of the application.

The framework guides cover React, Next.js, Vue, Nuxt, Svelte, SvelteKit, Astro, TanStack Start and plain websites.

Use the supplied UI or build it with headless APIs. A product-specific interface does not need to depend on a hosted banner editor.

Cookie Control also exposes code interfaces. Premium's API includes callbacks for acceptance and withdrawal. The distinction is c15t's native component model and editable engine.
