Consent Management

Usage

Consent management is a recommended feature and is automatically included in the library. To manage consent you must set a consent policy, then track the user’s consent status and consent preferences.

Enable

The consent management feature comes from the native SDKs embedded into the DLLs named Tealium.Platform.*.dlls.

To enable consent management, set the consentPolicy parameter when you initialize TealiumConfig:

TealiumConfig config = new TealiumConfig(
  //...
  consentPolicy = ConsentPolicy.GDPR,
  //...
);

Consent Status

As with the native SDKs for both Android and iOS, when consent management is enabled, new users are assumed to be in an unknown state. Tracking requests are queued up until the consent status has been opted-in or out, at which point events are sent or purged, respectively.

Use the following methods to manage a user’s consent:

• SetConsentStatus()
• GetConsentStatus()
• SetConsentCategories()
• GetConsentCategories()
• SetConsentExpiryListener()

The Tealium.Common.dll provides the following category and status enums to use:

• Tealium.ConsentManager.ConsentStatus
• Tealium.ConsentManager.ConsentCategory
