consent mechanisms
Consent mechanisms are processes that ensure individuals have the choice and control over their personal information and decisions. They typically involve informing people about what data is collected, how it will be used, and obtaining their explicit agreement before proceeding. This can include options like checkboxes, pop-up notifications, or verbal agreements. The aim is to respect privacy and promote transparency, allowing individuals to make informed choices and ensuring that their preferences are honored in various contexts, such as data sharing, medical procedures, or participation in activities.
