Why this matters for digital sovereignty
Consent management platforms record every visitor's consent choices, which makes the platform itself a GDPR processing activity that must be demonstrably compliant. Check where consent logs are stored, who owns the vendor and whether consent records can be exported as evidence during an audit.
