Didomi cookie banner: speed and features

In our tests with its TanStack Start integration, Didomi showed its cookie banner in a median 4.11 s on an emulated mid-tier phone. It delayed the main content by 1.28 s (95% interval 1.27 s to 1.37 s). Accept responded in 16 ms and Reject in 16 ms. It held trackers back in all 4 consent checks.

On desktop, the banner took 447 ms. Per vendor docs, Didomi supports IAB TCF, IAB GPP, Google Consent Mode v2, Google CMP certification and Global Privacy Control.
