    Under GDPR, consent has to be provable

    Not "we think they said yes" - a record of who, what for, and when.

  2. 0:04

    Open Consent Records from the menu

  3. 0:06

    Choose New consent record

  4. 0:09

    Who gave the consent

  5. 0:11

    Their email address

  6. 0:14

    What did they agree to

    Consent is per purpose. Agreeing to booking emails is not agreeing to marketing.

  7. 0:18

    Set the date they agreed

  8. 0:22

    Save the record

  9. 0:27

    That is your evidence

    If they later withdraw, record the date here too - the history stays intact.
