Consent Management | Getting Started for Mobile

Tealium Consent Management adds consent and data privacy support to your mobile app. It also adds the ability to prompt your users for consent, retain their selection, and honor that selection throughout the tracking behavior.

The behavior of the Consent Manager is controlled by a consent policy, which is based on the region of the app user.

The Tealium Consent Manager is designed to support multiple regulatory requirements and can be adapted to support new ones as they emerge. These policies are configured at initialization time by setting the TealiumConfig consentPolicy property.

Tealium iQ Tag Management and EventStream support the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) as the default policy.

Consent Status	Description
Not Set (default)	Tracking calls are queued locally until consent status is set.
Consent	Tracking calls are sent. Consent categories are included in all tracking calls. If consent logging is enabled the `grant_consent` event is sent.
Declined	Tracking calls are not sent. If consent logging in enabled the `decline_consent` event is sent.
