3. Automate centralized logging of consent status for regulatory audits and internal review.

4. Trigger automated reminders for expiring, missing, or withdrawn consents to maximize up-to-date compliance.

5. Automate documentation, analytics, and escalation workflows for non-compliance or missed consents.

2. Privacy policy updates trigger automated consent renewal notifications for all previously consenting customers.

3. Detected consent expiration or revocation activates automated reminder message sequence.
