Consent Receipt Key Generation for Privacy Compliance
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current systems lack effective methods for managing consent and personal data processing, particularly in ensuring compliance with privacy and security policies, leading to frequent breaches and unauthorized access to sensitive information.
Innovation Solution
A computer-implemented data processing method that generates a unique consent receipt key for transactions, associates it with a data subject's identifier, and stores this information for secure consent management, enabling transparent consent tracking and compliance with privacy policies.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If organizations implement manual consent management processes, then operational flexibility is maintained, but compliance reliability deteriorates due to frequent breaches and unauthorized access
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a third-party consent management system that acts as an intermediary between data subjects and organizations. This system generates and manages consent receipts with unique identifiers, providing a neutral platform that enhances compliance reliability without requiring organizations to build complex internal consent management infrastructure.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback mechanisms by providing consent receipts to data subjects and enabling verification of consent status. This creates a closed-loop system where consent decisions can be tracked, verified, and audited, significantly improving compliance reliability through continuous monitoring and verification.
2Reliability
If comprehensive consent tracking is implemented, then compliance with privacy policies improves, but data processing time increases due to additional verification steps
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by generating consent receipts and storing consent information in advance of actual data processing activities. This pre-established consent framework allows for rapid verification during data processing operations, maintaining high compliance standards without adding significant time delays to processing workflows.
Solution Approach 2:
The system creates simplified copies of consent information through standardized consent receipts with unique identifiers. These digital copies enable rapid verification and tracking without requiring access to or processing of the full consent documentation, thereby maintaining compliance while minimizing time loss.
3Reliability
If manual consent management processes are used, then system complexity is minimized, but data security deteriorates leading to frequent breaches
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a third-party consent management system that acts as an intermediary between data subjects and organizations. This system generates and manages consent receipts with unique identifiers, providing a neutral platform that enhances compliance reliability without requiring organizations to build complex internal consent management infrastructure.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service capabilities where data subjects can access and verify their own consent status through the third-party platform. This automated self-verification mechanism enhances data security by reducing manual intervention and potential human error, while the standardized receipt system keeps overall complexity manageable.

AI summary
A method for scanning a website and tracking data subject interaction with the website, comprising: determining a data subject is interacting with a particular website; determining one or more website parameters associated with the particular website, the one or more website parameters associated with the particular website include scanning the particular website to determine website cookies that capture data subject information, and determining a website category of the particular website; determining a geo-location of the data subject when the data subject is interacting with the particular website; determining one or more data subject consent parameters based at least in part on the one or more website parameters associated with the particular website and the geo-location of the data subject when the data subject is interacting with the particular website; and applying the one or more data subject consent parameters to the data subject interaction with the particular website.
