Consent Management Framework (CMF)
A Consent Management Framework (CMF) is a structured system that helps organizations collect, store, and honor individuals’ permissions regarding their personal data. It ensures that users have control over what information is shared and how it is used, in compliance with privacy laws. Essentially, CMF manages and documents users’ choices about data sharing, making it clear and simple for organizations to respect these preferences while maintaining transparency and trust. It acts as a bridge between users’ privacy rights and organizations’ data processing practices.
