Overview

A high level example of the relationship between withdrawal steps— consent, withdrawal, and notification of success.
A high level example of the relationship between withdrawal steps— consent, withdrawal, and notification of success.

The withdrawal journey for a consumer contains several steps, including:

  • Identifying a data sharing arrangement they wish to withdraw
  • The consumer must be able to review their data sharing arrangement from the consumer dashboard.

  • Reviewing the implications and confirming withdrawal
  • The consumer will be advised of potential consequences of withdrawal before they stop sharing. This should nudge the consumer to review how withdrawal may impact their service and the handling of their data.

  • Receiving a final notification of success
  • The consumer may receive confirmation that they have successfully withdrawn their consent, and be provided with an updated view of their expired consent on their dashboard.
