Consent management records

As explained in First-Party Data Activation

Consent management records are logs of individuals’ opt-ins, opt-outs, and updates to their data-processing preferences.

Consent management records log individuals’ opt-ins, opt-outs, and updates to data-processing preferences. They make user choices visible and support privacy-first data sourcing. section 2.3.1

Treat these records as part of the organization’s broader privacy and governance foundation:

• Capture preference changes clearly so data handling reflects current user choices. section 2.3.1
• Maintain them alongside compliance documentation covering applicable privacy laws and internal security policies. section 2.3.1
• Use them from the point of collection, where privacy risks begin, rather than treating privacy as a storage-only concern. section 2.3.1
