{% hint style="warning" %}

The [Didomi Consent String (DCS) ](/get-started/general/didomi-consent-string-dcs-and-signature.md)is a compact and modern consent string format that is designed to offer full flexibility in representing an end-user's privacy choices. It is fully supported on both web and mobile platforms includes all of Didomi SDKs for websites, iOS, and Android applications.

The Didomi Consent String (DCS) is stored in `didomi_dcs` and is an alternative to `didomi_token` which was typically stored in a browser's cookies or local storage. In this article, we will cover how to manually upgrade a consent notice so that it leverages the Didomi Consent String (DCS)

**Before** publishing a migrated consent notice, please ensure that your organization have satisfied the following:

* If your organization's website or app accessed  `didomi_token` in JSON format that it is updated to handle the binary format of `didomi_dcs` . [Click here](https://developers.didomi.io/cmp/didomi-consent-string) for more information.
* If your organization is integrated with third-party vendors that expect the `didomi_token` you may need to coordinate format updates with these partners
