Consent Fundamentals: Privacy Notices

In this document, we'll explain what privacy notices are and how they are used in Fides.

Privacy Notices

A privacy notice typically describes an organization's data processing practices and what website visitors can expect.

Often, this is the privacy policy of a website. However, any place where you serve a visitor information about your data processing activities as a part of gathering consent, is also a notice of your privacy practices.

Note: another option which must be supported is "notice only." In this configuration, a visitor is presented with a privacy notice but not required to give explicit consent-only to be presented with your data processing activities.
