Abstract

In various embodiments, a data processing consent capture system may be configured to prompt the data subject to consent to one or more types of data processing (e.g., to provide a desired consent) in response to identifying particular cookies (e.g., or types of data processing) that a data subject has not consented to. The system may, for example, substantially automatically prompt the data subject to consent for one or more particular types of data processing in response to determining that the user (e.g., data subject) has requested that a website or other system perform one or more functions that are not possible without a particular type of consent from the data subject. The system may, for example, prompt the user to consent in time for a certain interaction with the website, application, etc.
