Sharing end-user consent with vendors

When an end-user provides their consent selections in response to a Didomi consent notice that end-user consent status is transmitted to your organization's vendors in a variety of ways depending on the integrations enabled on the consent notice and/or the vendor type. Review the table below for more information:

End-user consent sharing

IAB vendor

Sharing behavior for an IAB vendor is dependent on whether the consent notice is integrated with the IAB TCF:

  • IAB TCF enabled: End-user consent data is communicated via a standardized consent string (TC string) to the vendor. Vendors will retrieve information through the __tcfapi function

  • IAB TCF not enabled: Vendor's tags on your website must execute custom logic that ensures they only trigger when the appropriate consent is received. This custom logic can be managed via your organization's tag management solution (TMS) or by utilizing the custom Didomi script tagsarrow-up-right to condition the vendor tags on your website so that they only trigger once consent has been collected.

Google ATP vendor

Sharing behavior for a Google ATP vendor is dependent on the kinds of integration(s) enabled for the consent notice:

  • IAB TCF enabled: End-user consent data is communicated via a standardized consent string (TC string) to the vendor. For Google ATP vendors that do not participate with the IAB TCF, Google's Additional Consent string will be communicated.

  • Google Consent Mode: Ensures Google vendors associated with a consent notice comply with an end-user's consent choices (called consent types) defined by Google. Consent information is communicated through modifications in tag configurations and API calls, which may involve Google Tag Manager or direct changes in the website's source code.

  • No integrations enabled: Vendor's tags on your website must execute custom logic that ensures they only trigger when the appropriate consent is received. This custom logic can be managed via your organization's tag management solution (TMS) or by utilizing the custom Didomi script tagsarrow-up-right to condition the vendor tags on your website so that they only trigger once consent has been collected.

Global vendor

Regardless of integrations in the consent notice, any global vendor included in a consent notice will need to have its tags on your website execute custom logic that ensures they only trigger when the appropriate consent is received. This custom logic can be managed via your organization's tag management solution (TMS) or by utilizing the custom Didomi script tagsarrow-up-right to condition the vendor tags on your website so that they only trigger once consent has been collected.

Custom vendor

Regardless of integrations in the consent notice, any custom vendor included in a consent notice will need to have its tags on your website execute custom logic that ensures they only trigger when the appropriate consent is received.
