Compliance considerations
A consent gate, not a data collector. Must be correctly configured to block all non-essential tags until consent is granted.
Maintenance: Regular domain scans and category audits are essential. Re-scan after every tag deployment.
As a CMP, OneTrust's own cookies are typically classified as strictly necessary and do not require consent.
