User consent management
User consent management is about asking permission before collecting data and respecting users' choices. This means showing users clear options about what data you want to collect and why you need it. For example, you might ask if it's okay to track which features they use or remember their preferences.
Popular websites handle this with cookie banners that let users say yes or no to different types of tracking. When a user says no to analytics tracking, your tools must stop collecting their data. If they say yes to functional cookies but no to marketing ones, you need to follow these choices exactly.
The key is making it simple for users to both understand and control their choices. Provide clear language like "We want to understand how you use our product to make it better" instead of technical terms. Also make sure users can easily change their mind later through your app's privacy settings.
