A consent management platform (CMP) is a tool that helps website and app publishers obtain and manage consent from users for the use of cookies and other tracking technologies used in identity and behavioral targeting. These platforms allow users to control their data privacy preferences and give website operators a way to obtain and record consent in compliance with data protection laws like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). In simple terms, a CMP is a tool that helps websites and apps get permission from users to collect and use their data, and keeps track of who has given that permission.
