11 December 2025 Proposed CX guidelines for feedback

The DSB has developed a set of proposed CX guidelines to support ADRs and data holders implementing the changes arising from CD376, particularly where white-label brand arrangements are in place.

These proposed guidelines aim to help ensure a clearer and more consistent consumer experience for CDR consumers.

The DSB welcomes community feedback on these proposed guidelines and on any additional CX guidance that may be required to support the changes arising from CD376.

Feedback can be submitted via this GitHub thread as comments or emailed to contact@dsb.gov.au.

A note on CX Guidelines

The CX Guidelines provide optional examples of CDR key requirements and recommendations to help organisations build best practice consent models.

Wireframe designs do not necessarily prescribe how to put key requirements into effect, but the rules require CDR participants to have regard to the CX guidelines (see rules 4.10(1)(a)(ii) and 4.22(b)). Aligning with these guidelines is recommended to support a consistent and familiar CDR ecosystem that consumers can trust.

CDR Participants should also refer to the CDR Rules, data standards, and privacy guidelines for a complete view of obligations to facilitate compliance.

Have your say

Community consultations and maintenance are part of our ongoing process. Here’s how you can get involved:

  • Request new Guidelines or changes to existing Guidelines through the CX Guidelines Consultation process
  • Request new Standards or changes to existing Standards through the Standards Maintenance process
  • Log a ticket for any questions about the rules, standards, or guidelines through the CDR Support Portal
  • Email your feedback to cx@dsb.gov.au
