Block cookies/scripts for the unselected category until the user changes the settings.
Allow the loading of related scripts if the user enables that category.

Accept/reject each group of cookies: Analytics, Marketing, Funtionals… Physcode Cookie Consent supports this very clearly

3. How to control third-party tracking scripts with cookies
To ensure Cookie Consent works properly and respects user privacy, you must modify third-party tracking codes (e.g. GA, FB, ..) to use a special format as below.
-Before consent
The <script> or iframe tags are modified as follows:
<script type="text/plain" data-cookiecategory="analytics" src="..."></script>→ Browser will not load/script/run until consent is granted
– After user consent (e.g. Analytics)
The plugin will:
- Convert the script tag to type=”text/javascript” or automatically inject the script into the page.
- The iframe or embed will convert data-src to src, displaying the corresponding content
Google Analytics control example:
- If the user has the “Analytics” group enabled, this script will run.
- If they don’t have it enabled, the script will still be blocked, and the _ga cookie will not be created.
<script type="text/plain"
data-physcookie-category="analytics"
src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=GA_ID"></script>
