Consent Audit Trail
A chronological, immutable log of every consent action — giving auditors a complete and traceable event history.
The Full History, Not Just the Current State
Audits ask what changed, when and on whose instruction. An append-only trail answers all three without reconstruction.
Append-Only Log
Events are written once and never edited, so history reflects what happened rather than the latest state.
Every Action Captured
Grants, updates, renewals, withdrawals, erasures and policy changes all land in the same timeline.
Actor Attribution
Each entry records who acted — data principal, agent or system — and through which channel.
Point-in-Time Replay
Reconstruct exactly what consent existed on any past date, which is what a dispute usually turns on.
Filter & Search
Query the trail by data principal, purpose, date range, channel or action type in seconds.
Export for Auditors
Hand over a scoped, signed extract instead of raw database access or ad-hoc screenshots.
How the Consent Audit Trail Works
Log Every Event
Each consent action writes an immutable entry with its actor, channel, purpose and timestamp.
Link the Chain
Entries are hashed in sequence, so a deletion or edit anywhere in the history is detectable.
Query & Extract
Filter the trail for a user, purpose or period and export a signed pack for audit or grievance review.
Answer "What Happened?" in One Query
Replace log-stitching and screenshots with a single immutable timeline of every consent action.
