+
+The Trade Desk Universal Pixel records conversions and builds ad audiences.
+The c15t `theTradeDeskPixel` helper waits until the `marketing` category is
+allowed before it defines the pixel globals and adds the loader.
+
+The Trade Desk has no API to stop its SDK. When the visitor withdraws, the
+helper leaves the SDK on the page, and c15t's default page reload removes it.
+
+## Configure The Trade Desk
+
+Copy the advertiser ID and Universal Pixel IDs from your account snippet. This
+helper uses the Universal Pixel 3 loader. Unified ID 2.0 setup is separate.
+Then delete the direct snippet and any tag manager copy, so they can't load
+The Trade Desk without consent.

+import { theTradeDeskPixel } from '@c15t/integrations/the-trade-desk';
+
+export const scripts = [
+	theTradeDeskPixel({ advertiserId: 'ADVERTISER_ID', pixelIds: ['PIXEL_ID'] }),
+];
+```
+
+## Register the scripts
+
+Complete your [framework quickstart](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks) first. Keep its Inth
+endpoint, policy, styles and consent UI. Remove the vendor's original script,
+SDK initializer or tag-manager entry, so the vendor loads only through c15t.
+
+The vendor pages put the helper in `src/consent-scripts.ts`. If your framework
+quickstart already has a `scripts` array, such as the one in `c15t.config.ts`
+in the Next.js guide, add the helper to that array instead of creating a
+second file.
+The `scripts` export is a configuration, not an initializer. Add it to the c15t provider you already have, at the registration
+point for your framework below. These are edits to that provider, not a second
+provider.
+
+**Next.js**
+
+Add the configuration to `scripts` in `c15t.config.ts`, next to
+`next.config.ts`:
+
+```ts title="c15t.config.ts"
+import { defineConsentConfig } from 'c15t/next';
+import { scripts } from './src/consent-scripts';
+
+export default defineConsentConfig({ scripts });
+```
+
+Keep the rest of your config, such as `mode` and `routePrefix`, in the
+same call. `ConsentRoot` reads the config in the browser, so the layout
+keeps passing only `state`. App Router, Pages Router and static export all
+read the same file. See
+[Next.js scripts and embeds](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/next/scripts).
+
+**TanStack Start**
+
+Import the configuration into your root route and pass it to the existing
+`ConsentRoot` as a top-level prop. Keep the loader from the
+[TanStack Start quickstart](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/tanstack-start/quickstart):
+
+```tsx title="src/routes/__root.tsx"
+import { scripts } from '../consent-scripts';
+
+<ConsentRoot state={consent} scripts={scripts}>
+```
+
+Import vendor helpers in the root route module, not in a server function.
+A server function's return value must be serializable, and script
+configurations carry callbacks. See
+[TanStack Start scripts](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/tanstack-start/scripts).
+
+**React**
+
+Add the configuration to the existing `ConsentProvider` options, next to
+`mode`:
+
+```tsx title="src/consent.tsx"
+import { scripts } from './consent-scripts';
+
+<ConsentProvider options={{ mode, scripts }}>
+```
+
+`mode` is the `manifest()` value from the
+[React quickstart](../frameworks/react/quickstart.md). Keep the banner,
+dialog and preferences link inside the provider. See
+[React scripts and embeds](../frameworks/react/scripts.md).
+
+**Nuxt**
+
+Register the scripts under the `c15t` key in `app/app.config.ts`. Adjust the
+relative import to where you created `consent-scripts.ts`:
+
+```ts title="app/app.config.ts"
+import { scripts } from '../src/consent-scripts';
+
+export default defineAppConfig({
+  c15t: { scripts },
+});
+```
+
+The Nuxt module merges this over its options in `nuxt.config.ts` and starts
+one script loader in the browser after hydration, once it has applied the
+visitor's stored choice and privacy signals. Keep `scripts` out of
+`nuxt.config.ts`, which reaches the browser as JSON and drops the vendor
+callbacks. Write the vendor IDs into `consent-scripts.ts`. See
+[Nuxt scripts and embeds](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/nuxt/scripts).
+
+**Vue**
+
+Pass the scripts to the existing `c15tVue` plugin call in `src/main.ts`:
+
+```ts title="src/main.ts"
+import { c15tVue, manifest } from 'c15t/vue/vue-plugin';
+import { scripts } from './consent-scripts';
+
+app.use(c15tVue, {
+  mode: manifest(),
+  scripts,
+});
+```
+
+Keep your existing `mode` and other options. The plugin starts one
+script loader when the app mounts, after it has applied the visitor's stored
+choice. Do not also call `createScriptLoader` from a component. See
+[Vue scripts and embeds](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/vue/scripts).
+
+**Astro**
+
+Add the scripts to the client entrypoint from the
+[Astro quickstart](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/astro/quickstart), `src/c15t.client.ts`,
+which the integration finds on its own. Keep `astro.config.mjs` as it is.
+If the module already exports scripts, combine the two arrays.
+
+```ts title="src/c15t.client.ts"
+import type { C15tClientOptionsExtension } from 'c15t/astro';
+import { scripts } from './consent-scripts';
+
+export default { scripts } satisfies C15tClientOptionsExtension;
+```
+
+Vendor helpers contain callbacks, and the integration options in
+`astro.config.mjs` are serialized into the page, so do not put helpers in
+the integration's `scripts` option. The integration passes the client
+entrypoint to the one runtime every page shares, including across
+`ClientRouter` navigation.
+
+**Svelte**
+
+Import the scripts in the component that owns your existing provider and
+pass them as a top-level prop:
+
+```svelte title="src/App.svelte"
+<script lang="ts">
+  import { ConsentProvider, manifest } from 'c15t/svelte';
+  import { scripts } from './consent-scripts';
+</script>
+
+<ConsentProvider mode={manifest()} {scripts}>
+  <!-- Keep your application, consent UI and preferences link here. -->
+</ConsentProvider>
+```
+
+Retain the styles and consent UI from the [Svelte quickstart](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/svelte/quickstart).
+The provider owns the loader and disposes it on unmount.
+
+**SvelteKit**
+
+Add the scripts to the existing `ConsentRoot` in the root layout. Keep the
+handle and the layout load from the [SvelteKit quickstart](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/sveltekit/quickstart).
+
+```svelte title="src/routes/+layout.svelte"
+<script lang="ts">
+  import { ConsentRoot } from 'c15t/svelte';
+  import { scripts } from '../consent-scripts';
+
+  let { children, data } = $props();
+</script>
+
+<ConsentRoot state={data.consent} {scripts}>
+  {@render children()}
+  <!-- Keep your consent UI and preferences link here. -->
+</ConsentRoot>
+```
+
+Import vendor helpers in the layout component, not in `+layout.server.ts`:
+a server load cannot send functions to the browser. Prerendered, static and
+SPA-mode pages use the same `scripts` prop. If you pass an externally owned
+`runtime` to the provider, register scripts when creating that runtime instead.
+
+**HTML**
+
+The helpers in `@c15t/integrations` are ES modules that need a bundler. On a
+page that loads the c15t script tag, paste the vendor's own snippet instead
+and keep it inert until its category is allowed:
+
+```html
+<script type="text/plain" data-c15t-category="measurement">
+  // The vendor's snippet, unchanged
+</script>
+```
+
+Use the category this guide names for the vendor. c15t runs the snippet
+once that category is allowed, and reloads the page when the visitor
+withdraws it. Helper options on this page, such as `loadMode`, do not apply
+to a pasted snippet. See [HTML scripts](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/html/scripts).
+
+**JavaScript**
+
+Pass the scripts to `init()` from `@c15t/browser`, next to your mode:
+
+```ts
+import { init, manifest } from '@c15t/browser';
+import { scripts } from './consent-scripts';
+
+const consent = init({
+  mode: manifest(),
+  scripts,
+});
+```
+
+Keep the mode from your quickstart. With
+`createConsentRuntime` from `c15t/runtime`, pass `scripts` to it instead.
+A kernel you create yourself needs a loader from
+`c15t/modules/script-loader`. Attach one loader per kernel. See
+[JavaScript scripts](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/javascript/scripts).

+| `advertiserId`         | Required                                   | Public advertiser ID. Trimmed. If it's missing or blank, c15t logs an error and never loads the pixel.                                                  |
+| `pixelIds`             | Required                                   | Nonempty array of public Universal Pixel IDs, each trimmed. If the array is empty or any entry is blank, c15t logs an error and skips the whole helper. |
+| `enableCookieSyncing`  | Vendor default                             | Passed to `init` when set. `false` turns off cookie syncing, but it doesn't stop all cookies and doesn't make loading before consent safe.              |
+| `dataProcessingOption` | None                                       | Limited data use setting, such as `{ policies: ['LDU'], region: 'US-CO' }`. It doesn't replace consent.                                                 |
+| `scriptUrl`            | `https://js.adsrvr.org/up_loader.3.0.0.js` | Loader URL override. A blank value uses the default. Walmart DSP accounts use `https://azjs.adsrvr.org/thetradedesk-ads/up_loader.3.0.0.js`.            |
+
+## Loading and revocation
+
+When `marketing` is allowed, the helper creates the `ttdConversionEventsLayer`
+array and a `ttdConversionEvents` function that pushes each call's arguments
+onto it. It queues one `init` call and one `event` call, then adds the loader
+as an async script. If you set `dataProcessingOption`, the helper passes it as
+`dataProcessingOption` to `init` and as `data_processing_option` on the event.
+If your page already defines `ttdConversionEvents` or the layer, the helper
+leaves them alone.
+
+The SDK reads TCF and GPP signals where they apply. Those signals control what
+the vendor does after it loads. They don't replace the c15t gate. Send your own
+conversion calls only while marketing and any vendor consent stay granted.
+
+The Trade Desk documents no way to stop or tear down the SDK in the browser.
+On withdrawal, the helper keeps the loader element on the page. Keep c15t's
+default `reloadOnConsentRevoked` enabled. Without the reload, existing code,
+requests and frames can keep running until the visitor navigates. If the
+visitor grants consent again on the same page, the helper reuses that loader
+and doesn't queue `init` or the event a second time.
+
+## Cookies and storage
+
+The Trade Desk documents the `TDID` identifier cookie on `adsrvr.org`, with a
+one-year lifetime. A read-only request using the guide's sample IDs returned a
+`TDID` cookie even with cookie syncing turned off. The served SDK also reads
+local storage debugging flags and can read existing GA4 cookies when
+configured. This list isn't a complete cookie inventory.
+
+For CSP, the guide lists `js.adsrvr.org` for scripts, and `insight.adsrvr.org`
+and `match.adsrvr.org` for frames. Realtime conversion connections use
+`insight.adsrvr.org`. Account options can add hosts.
+
+## Verify The Trade Desk
+
+In a fresh browser profile, deny consent and allow only an unrelated category.
+Filter Network by `adsrvr.org` and confirm that no requests, globals, cookies,
+local storage or session storage appear. Grant `marketing` and check the loader
+URL against your account snippet. Withdraw consent and confirm the page
+reloads. The Trade Desk must stay blocked on the new page. Check storage in
+DevTools as well as Network.
+
+The browser monitor blocks collection, so it doesn't confirm that your account
+receives events.
+
+Sources: [Universal Pixel guide](https://open.thetradedesk.com/provider/docsApp/GuidesProvider/data/doc/TrackingTagsUniversalPixel)
+and [privacy policy](https://www.thetradedesk.com/legal/privacy).
+
+Test in a private window with an opt-in policy. Open DevTools Network, disable
+the cache and filter by the vendor's domain:
+
+1. Load the page. No request goes to the vendor before you choose.
+2. Click Reject, then reload. There is still no vendor request.
+3. Open Privacy settings and allow the helper's category. The vendor script
+   loads without a page reload.
+4. Turn the category off again and save. c15t reloads the page, and the new
+   page makes no vendor request.
+
+c15t reloads on revocation because removing a script element does not stop
+code that already ran. The vendor's listeners, timers and queued events stay
+alive until the page unloads. If you set `reloadOnConsentRevoked: false`, stop
+the vendor yourself. Register a callback-only script whose `onConsentChange`
+calls the vendor's opt-out API, as shown in
+[custom integrations](./building-integrations.md), and check the
+permission before each of your own event calls. The reload does not delete
+cookies the vendor already set; see
+[clear on revocation for your framework](./overview.md#vendor-switches-and-cookie-cleanup).
+
+The helper lists its vendor by name in the preference dialog, so a visitor can
+turn it off inside an allowed category. See
+[vendor consent for your framework](./overview.md#vendor-switches-and-cookie-cleanup). The
+[consent verification guide](../guides/verify-consent.md) covers navigation,
+expiry and hosting checks.

+
+Vector identifies the people and companies visiting your site and builds
+advertising audiences from their activity. The c15t `vector` helper keeps
+Vector off the page until the `marketing` category is allowed. Vector has no
+documented stop API, so on withdrawal c15t reloads the page to stop it.
+
+## Configure Vector
+
+Copy the pixel ID from **Settings > Pixel** in your Vector account, where the
+install snippet calls `vector.load`. Vector's own consent example requires
+advertising consent, so this helper uses the `marketing` category. Remove the
+direct snippet and any tag manager copy so they can't bypass c15t.

+
+## Register the scripts
+
+Complete your [framework quickstart](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks) first. Keep its Inth
+endpoint, policy, styles and consent UI. Remove the vendor's original script,
+SDK initializer or tag-manager entry, so the vendor loads only through c15t.
+
+The vendor pages put the helper in `src/consent-scripts.ts`. If your framework
+quickstart already has a `scripts` array, such as the one in `c15t.config.ts`
+in the Next.js guide, add the helper to that array instead of creating a
+second file.
+The `scripts` export is a configuration, not an initializer. Add it to the c15t provider you already have, at the registration
+point for your framework below. These are edits to that provider, not a second
+provider.
+
+**Next.js**
+
+Add the configuration to `scripts` in `c15t.config.ts`, next to
+`next.config.ts`:
+
+```ts title="c15t.config.ts"
+import { defineConsentConfig } from 'c15t/next';
+import { scripts } from './src/consent-scripts';
+
+export default defineConsentConfig({ scripts });
+```
+
+Keep the rest of your config, such as `mode` and `routePrefix`, in the
+same call. `ConsentRoot` reads the config in the browser, so the layout
+keeps passing only `state`. App Router, Pages Router and static export all
+read the same file. See
+[Next.js scripts and embeds](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/next/scripts).
+
+**TanStack Start**
+
+Import the configuration into your root route and pass it to the existing
+`ConsentRoot` as a top-level prop. Keep the loader from the
+[TanStack Start quickstart](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/tanstack-start/quickstart):
+
+```tsx title="src/routes/__root.tsx"
+import { scripts } from '../consent-scripts';
+
+<ConsentRoot state={consent} scripts={scripts}>
+```
+
+Import vendor helpers in the root route module, not in a server function.
+A server function's return value must be serializable, and script
+configurations carry callbacks. See
+[TanStack Start scripts](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/tanstack-start/scripts).
+
+**React**
+
+Add the configuration to the existing `ConsentProvider` options, next to
+`mode`:
+
+```tsx title="src/consent.tsx"
+import { scripts } from './consent-scripts';
+
+<ConsentProvider options={{ mode, scripts }}>
+```
+
+`mode` is the `manifest()` value from the
+[React quickstart](../frameworks/react/quickstart.md). Keep the banner,
+dialog and preferences link inside the provider. See
+[React scripts and embeds](../frameworks/react/scripts.md).
+
+**Nuxt**
+
+Register the scripts under the `c15t` key in `app/app.config.ts`. Adjust the
+relative import to where you created `consent-scripts.ts`:
+
+```ts title="app/app.config.ts"
+import { scripts } from '../src/consent-scripts';
+
+export default defineAppConfig({
+  c15t: { scripts },
+});
+```
+
+The Nuxt module merges this over its options in `nuxt.config.ts` and starts
+one script loader in the browser after hydration, once it has applied the
+visitor's stored choice and privacy signals. Keep `scripts` out of
+`nuxt.config.ts`, which reaches the browser as JSON and drops the vendor
+callbacks. Write the vendor IDs into `consent-scripts.ts`. See
+[Nuxt scripts and embeds](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/nuxt/scripts).
+
+**Vue**
+
+Pass the scripts to the existing `c15tVue` plugin call in `src/main.ts`:
+
+```ts title="src/main.ts"
+import { c15tVue, manifest } from 'c15t/vue/vue-plugin';
+import { scripts } from './consent-scripts';
+
+app.use(c15tVue, {
+  mode: manifest(),
+  scripts,
+});
+```
+
+Keep your existing `mode` and other options. The plugin starts one
+script loader when the app mounts, after it has applied the visitor's stored
+choice. Do not also call `createScriptLoader` from a component. See
+[Vue scripts and embeds](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/vue/scripts).
+
+**Astro**
+
+Add the scripts to the client entrypoint from the
+[Astro quickstart](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/astro/quickstart), `src/c15t.client.ts`,
+which the integration finds on its own. Keep `astro.config.mjs` as it is.
+If the module already exports scripts, combine the two arrays.
+
+```ts title="src/c15t.client.ts"
+import type { C15tClientOptionsExtension } from 'c15t/astro';
+import { scripts } from './consent-scripts';
+
+export default { scripts } satisfies C15tClientOptionsExtension;
+```
+
+Vendor helpers contain callbacks, and the integration options in
+`astro.config.mjs` are serialized into the page, so do not put helpers in
+the integration's `scripts` option. The integration passes the client
+entrypoint to the one runtime every page shares, including across
+`ClientRouter` navigation.
+
+**Svelte**
+
+Import the scripts in the component that owns your existing provider and
+pass them as a top-level prop:
+
+```svelte title="src/App.svelte"
+<script lang="ts">
+  import { ConsentProvider, manifest } from 'c15t/svelte';
+  import { scripts } from './consent-scripts';
+</script>
+
+<ConsentProvider mode={manifest()} {scripts}>
+  <!-- Keep your application, consent UI and preferences link here. -->
+</ConsentProvider>
+```
+
+Retain the styles and consent UI from the [Svelte quickstart](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/svelte/quickstart).
+The provider owns the loader and disposes it on unmount.
+
+**SvelteKit**
+
+Add the scripts to the existing `ConsentRoot` in the root layout. Keep the
+handle and the layout load from the [SvelteKit quickstart](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/sveltekit/quickstart).
+
+```svelte title="src/routes/+layout.svelte"
+<script lang="ts">
+  import { ConsentRoot } from 'c15t/svelte';
+  import { scripts } from '../consent-scripts';
+
+  let { children, data } = $props();
+</script>
+
+<ConsentRoot state={data.consent} {scripts}>
+  {@render children()}
+  <!-- Keep your consent UI and preferences link here. -->
+</ConsentRoot>
+```
+
+Import vendor helpers in the layout component, not in `+layout.server.ts`:
+a server load cannot send functions to the browser. Prerendered, static and
+SPA-mode pages use the same `scripts` prop. If you pass an externally owned
+`runtime` to the provider, register scripts when creating that runtime instead.
+
+**HTML**
+
+The helpers in `@c15t/integrations` are ES modules that need a bundler. On a
+page that loads the c15t script tag, paste the vendor's own snippet instead
+and keep it inert until its category is allowed:
+
+```html
+<script type="text/plain" data-c15t-category="measurement">
+  // The vendor's snippet, unchanged
+</script>
+```
+
+Use the category this guide names for the vendor. c15t runs the snippet
+once that category is allowed, and reloads the page when the visitor
+withdraws it. Helper options on this page, such as `loadMode`, do not apply
+to a pasted snippet. See [HTML scripts](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/html/scripts).
+
+**JavaScript**
+
+Pass the scripts to `init()` from `@c15t/browser`, next to your mode:
+
+```ts
+import { init, manifest } from '@c15t/browser';
+import { scripts } from './consent-scripts';
+
+const consent = init({
+  mode: manifest(),
+  scripts,
+});
+```
+
+Keep the mode from your quickstart. With
+`createConsentRuntime` from `c15t/runtime`, pass `scripts` to it instead.
+A kernel you create yourself needs a loader from
+`c15t/modules/script-loader`. Attach one loader per kernel. See
+[JavaScript scripts](https://c15t.com/docs/frameworks/javascript/scripts).

+| Option      | Default                          | Behavior                                                                                                                                      |

+| `pixelId`   | Required                         | Pixel ID from your account snippet. Whitespace is trimmed. A missing or blank ID logs `vector: missing or invalid pixelId` and skips loading. |
+| `scriptUrl` | `https://cdn.vector.co/pixel.js` | Custom SDK URL. Blank values use the default.                                                                                                 |

+## Loading and revocation
+
+After consent, the helper creates `window.vector` with a queue for `load`,
+`identify` and `on`. Calls use Vector's nested argument format,
+`[methodName, argsArray]`, and preserve callback references. The helper queues
+`load(pixelId)` before inserting the asynchronous SDK script. Existing SDK
+methods are preserved. The helper sends no identification calls itself.
+
+The loader stays registered across withdrawal and regrant to avoid duplicate
+execution on the same page. Vector has no documented complete shutdown API.
+Keep c15t's default page reload on revocation enabled. With reload disabled,
+running code, pending loads and partner activity can continue until navigation.
+The reload doesn't clear Vector's storage.
+
+The helper does not call the undocumented `block` or `removeVisitor` methods.
+Form listening and IP-to-company lookup depend on account settings. Vector's
+IP-to-company consent hooks cover only that lookup and cannot replace gating
+the whole pixel.
+
+## Requests, cookies and storage
+
+Vector's CSP guide lists `cdn.vector.co`, `api.vector.co` and
+`a.usbrowserspeed.com`. The current SDK also includes LiveIntent and can contact
+`idx.liadm.com`. Check requests for your account before setting CSP rules.
+
+The current SDK prefers local storage, with session storage, cookies and memory
+as fallbacks. Pixel state can include
+`vector_pixel_<pixelId>_visitor_id`, `vector_pixel_<pixelId>_visitor_uuid`,
+`vector_pixel_<pixelId>_synced_at` and
+`vector_pixel_<pixelId>_last_identified_id`. Legacy and global keys also exist.
+
+The `vector_visitor_id` cookie depends on the account's `pixelCookieFallback`
+setting. The fetched SDK requests a lifetime of 3,650 days, with
+`SameSite=None; Secure`; browsers may shorten that lifetime. Partner state can
+include `_lc2_fpi`, `_lc2_fpi_js`, `_li_dcdm_c` and local-storage `_li_duid`.
+Vector can read the existing `hubspotutk` cookie. This list describes the fetched
+SDK, not a stable or exhaustive storage contract.
+
+## Verify Vector
+
+Use your own pixel ID on a domain allowed by your Vector account. In a fresh
+browser profile, deny optional consent, then grant only measurement consent.
+Confirm that no Vector global, SDK request or vendor storage appears. Grant
+marketing consent and confirm that `pixel.js` loads once. Withdraw consent and
+confirm the page reloads and blocks Vector on the new page. Check Network,
+cookies, local storage and session storage.
+
+c15t's live vendor probe uses a placeholder pixel ID. It confirms that the
+downloaded SDK replaces the queue, replays the nested calls and registers the
+pixel. It blocks settings, identity and collection requests, so the SDK can log
+a JSON error for the empty settings response. Vector checks the requesting
+domain before it returns settings, so the probe can't verify account settings
+or visitor identification. Test those with your own pixel ID on an allowed
+domain.

+
+Test in a private window with an opt-in policy. Open DevTools Network, disable
+the cache and filter by the vendor's domain:
+
+1. Load the page. No request goes to the vendor before you choose.
+2. Click Reject, then reload. There is still no vendor request.
+3. Open Privacy settings and allow the helper's category. The vendor script
+   loads without a page reload.
+4. Turn the category off again and save. c15t reloads the page, and the new
+   page makes no vendor request.
+
+c15t reloads on revocation because removing a script element does not stop
+code that already ran. The vendor's listeners, timers and queued events stay
+alive until the page unloads. If you set `reloadOnConsentRevoked: false`, stop
+the vendor yourself. Register a callback-only script whose `onConsentChange`
+calls the vendor's opt-out API, as shown in
+[custom integrations](./building-integrations.md), and check the
+permission before each of your own event calls. The reload does not delete
+cookies the vendor already set; see
+[clear on revocation for your framework](./overview.md#vendor-switches-and-cookie-cleanup).
+
+The helper lists its vendor by name in the preference dialog, so a visitor can
+turn it off inside an allowed category. See
+[vendor consent for your framework](./overview.md#vendor-switches-and-cookie-cleanup). The
+[consent verification guide](../guides/verify-consent.md) covers navigation,
+expiry and hosting checks.
