These guidelines provide examples for how to implement amending consent scenarios.
Overview
The object statement in CDR rule 4.9 provides a strong foundation for giving and amending CDR consents.
In accordance with CDR Rule 4.12B(3), the accredited person may invite a CDR consumer to amend a current consent if:
(a) the amendment would better enable the accredited person to provide the goods or services referred to in paragraph 4.3(1)(a); or(b) the amendment would:
(i) be consequential to an agreement between the accredited person and the CDR consumer to modify those goods or services; and
(ii) enable the accredited person to provide the modified goods or services.
Data recipients must also provide the cdr_arrangement_id of the consent to the data holder as part of the amendment process, as stipulated in the Consent: Amendment of Collection Consents and Authorisations Standard. This will provide consumers with a streamlined authorisation experience.
When amending a collection consent to adjust the duration or change the data sets collected, the consumer will need to authenticate and authorise with the data holder. Amendments to disclosure or use consents don't require the consumer to be redirected to the data holder.
Data recipients may also allow consumers to amend the attributes of a consent via their consumer dashboard. The guidelines in this section provide examples of how to implement amending consents where the data recipient invites the consumer to amend a current consent.
