Article 29 Working Party Issues Revised Consent Guidelines

The Guidelines on Consent under Regulation 2016/679 WP259 rev 01 were last revised and adopted on April 10, 2018.   The Guidelines provide in part that the “obligation is on controllers to innovate to find new solutions that operate within the parameters of the law and better support the protection of personal data and the interests of data subjects.”   The document makes good use of examples in attempting to further the understanding of what true consent is and what it looks like to recognize it.   http://pdf 20180416_Article 29 WP Guidelines on Consent_publish.pdf (280 Kb)
