REGIONAL CONSENT RULES # Consent rules that follow the visitor Inth Consent works out where each visitor is and applies the policy for that place. Visitors only see a banner where a policy asks for one, and it appears in their own language. **Ask your coding agent** ```text Add inth to my app: inth.com/SKILL.md ``` [Talk to Inth](https://booking.inth.com/talk-with-inth) Policies Sample data Storefront · storefront.example.test Active policies Policies are evaluated from top to bottom. custom\_eu · Opt-in · Custom · 1 country Available defaults Enable a shared policy, then place it in the required order.

Inth Consent recognises the GDPR, UK GDPR, Switzerland’s FADP, Brazil’s LGPD, Canada’s PIPEDA, Québec’s Law 25, California’s CCPA, Australia’s Privacy Act, Japan’s APPI and South Korea’s PIPA. Each one decides whether that visitor gets opt-in or opt-out rules. ### What is the difference between opt-in and opt-out? Under opt-in rules, analytics and marketing stay off until the visitor accepts. That covers the GDPR, UK GDPR, Switzerland, Brazil, Japan, South Korea and Québec. Under opt-out rules, those tags can run until the visitor says no. That covers California, the rest of Canada and Australia. ### How does it know where a visitor is? It reads the country, and where it matters the state or province, from the request that loads the banner. It then checks your policies from top to bottom and uses the first one that fits. If the location can’t be read, a fallback policy applies. ### What happens when a browser sends Global Privacy Control? In California the signal counts as an opt-out of sale and sharing. Marketing and analytics stay off for that visitor without them touching the banner. ### Can we set our own rule for one country? Yes. Turn on a ready-made policy such as Europe Opt-In or California Opt-Out, or create your own. Policies run from top to bottom, so a policy for one country can sit above the regional one. ### Can each region have its own wording and language? Yes. Each policy can carry its own banner wording, and c15t shows the banner in the visitor’s browser language from its 30+ built-in translations. ### Do you keep proof of each choice? Yes. Each consent record shows the visitor’s choice, their country and the policy that applied. ### Is this legal advice? No. Inth Consent applies the policies you choose.
