Consent Governance: A New Approach

In response to both to obligations under EU GDPR and growing consumer expectations for privacy protection, organizations across the globe have invested in tools to present consent terns and store consent logs. But the question is what next, once consent have been logged? Enter consent governance, which will allow organizations to align when, how and what consent was provided with data subject rights reporting and actual data processing flows. Consent governance progresses from the process of capturing consent and recording logs to all organizations to embed consent - and other lawful bases for processing - into analysis and evaluation of how an individual's personal data is processed.
