  ### Core Terms

  | Term               | Definition                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  |
  | ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
  | `subjectId`        | Client-generated device/browser identifier (`sub_xxx`). Stored in the `c15t` cookie. Created on first consent save.                                                                                                                         |
  | `externalId`       | Your authenticated user's ID (from Clerk, Auth0, etc.), linked via `identifyUser()`. Connects a device to a user account.                                                                                                                   |
  | `consents`         | The **saved** consent state — `Record<string, boolean>` mapping categories to granted/denied. Used for gating scripts, iframes, and network requests.                                                                                       |
  | `selectedConsents` | **Unsaved** toggle state — what the user has toggled in the dialog but hasn't submitted yet. Becomes `consents` after save.                                                                                                                 |
  | `mode`             | Client operating mode: `'hosted'` (full backend), `'offline'` (local only), or `'custom'` (bring your own handlers). Legacy alias: `'c15t'`. Set once in provider config. See [Client Modes](/docs/frameworks/react/concepts/client-modes). |
  | `model`            | Consent regulatory model derived from jurisdiction: `'opt-in'`, `'opt-out'`, `'iab'`, or `null`. See [Consent Models](/docs/frameworks/react/concepts/consent-models).                                                                      |

  ### Regulatory Terms

  | Term           | Definition                                                                                                                                                                                                                             |
  | -------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
  | `jurisdiction` | A privacy regulation code (e.g., `GDPR`, `CCPA`, `PIPEDA`, `QC_LAW25`) detected from the user's geolocation. Maps to a consent model. See [Consent Models](/docs/frameworks/react/concepts/consent-models) for the full mapping table. |
  | GPC            | Global Privacy Control — a browser signal (`Sec-GPC: 1`) indicating the user opts out of data sale/sharing. Honored when a policy sets `consent.gpc: true` (enabled by default in California presets).                                 |
  | TCF            | IAB Transparency and Consent Framework (v2.3) — a standard for programmatic advertising consent in GDPR jurisdictions. See [IAB TCF](/docs/frameworks/react/iab/overview).                                                             |
  | GVL            | Global Vendor List — an IAB-maintained registry of ad-tech vendors and their declared purposes, used by the TCF consent flow.                                                                                                          |
