Data: Consent & Withdrawl
Nick Lothian
Head of Product // Verida
TRANSCRIPTION:
The idea that people need to have continual consent and informed about what that data is being used for, and the ability to withdraw that consent at any point. It’s no point doing those click through agreements to say, yes, I understand this company is going to take my data if you can’t reverse that.
So our tooling lets you easily say, at any point, okay, I’m withdrawing consent to use my data. And that means that data is no longer available to that company.
And without that, what’s the point? Just clicking a box on a thing that you signed up for three years ago really is a meaningless agreement to a lot of people.
