Consent Withdrawal

Individuals have the right to withdraw their consent for data processing:

• Withdrawal Process: Organisations must make it as easy to withdraw consent as it is to give it. Data subjects should be provided with clear and accessible withdrawal options, such as an unsubscribe link in marketing emails.

• Implications: Withdrawal of consent means that data processing for the specific purposes outlined in the consent should cease. However, it does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on other legal grounds.

Managing these different lawful bases for data processing is essential for GDPR compliance. Organisations must assess their data processing activities carefully and choose the appropriate basis while ensuring transparency and respect for individuals' rights.
