Evidence
Manage consent records and retention
Keep useful evidence without collecting unnecessary identity data.

What to record
Store the pseudonymous visitor reference, time, selected purposes, applicable region and the notice/configuration version. Avoid names, emails or full IP addresses unless separately justified.
Define retention
Set a documented period based on accountability needs and limitation periods. Automatically delete or aggregate expired records and restrict export access by role.
Handle withdrawal
Append the new choice rather than rewriting history. Operational systems should receive the withdrawal immediately while the evidence log preserves the sequence of decisions.
