10. Proof and Records of Consent
- Proof of Consent: In line with GDPR and ePrivacy standards, we maintain a technical record of how consent is obtained, including banner display and cookie blocking configuration. This meets the data minimization principle.
- Records of Consent: While GDPR does not legally require keeping active logs of every user’s consent, Complianz enables us to generate these records where needed. This is particularly relevant for non-EU website operators or users of frameworks like TCF.
- Consent Statistics: When consent logs are enabled, we may use them to visualize visitor interactions and improve banner performance via A/B testing. This is a premium feature supported by our licensed Complianz integration.
