Consent management is a system, process or set of policies for allowing consumers to determine information they are willing to permit their various providers to access. Originally it was related to health care so it was enabling patients and consumers to affirm their participation in e-health initiatives and to establish consent directives to determine who will have access to their protected health information (PHI), for what purpose and under what circumstances. After GDPR was established in Europe, consent management become more wide area and started to include managing of private information and their access by any provider (like online advertisers). Consent management supports the dynamic creation, management and enforcement of consumer, organizational and jurisdictional privacy policies. [1]
