Consent management puts users at the core

As online transactions proliferate, platforms increasingly ask users for a variety of consents. Transparency and information are often missing, leading to consent fatigue and permission by default. However, users may want to have a comprehensive view of the sites that have access to their personal data. The new Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDPA), has introduced the consent manager as a single point of contact for data principals, enabling the latter to have greater control over such data.
