Consent Management Configuration

Test GDPR, CCPA, and other privacy compliance scenarios with realistic consent workflows.

Overview

MockCDP simulates real-world consent management scenarios to help you test your privacy compliance implementation. Configure how users interact with consent banners, manage their preferences, and exercise their privacy rights.

Consent Scenarios

GDPR Compliance (EU)

Simulates European users with strict consent requirements.

User Behaviors:

  • • 30% accept all cookies immediately
  • • 40% customize preferences (accept analytics, reject marketing)
  • • 20% reject all non-essential cookies
  • • 10% leave site without interacting with banner

Consent Categories:

  • • Essential cookies (always allowed)
  • • Analytics & Performance
  • • Marketing & Advertising
  • • Social Media Integration

CCPA Compliance (California)

Models California residents with opt-out rights for data sales.

User Behaviors:

  • • 85% continue without opting out
  • • 10% click "Do Not Sell My Personal Information"
  • • 5% request data deletion or access

Privacy Rights:

  • • Right to know about data collection
  • • Right to delete personal information
  • • Right to opt-out of data sales
  • • Right to non-discrimination

Global Privacy (Mixed Regulations)

Simulates users from various jurisdictions with different requirements.

Regional Variations:

  • Brazil (LGPD): Similar to GDPR with local nuances
  • Canada (PIPEDA): Opt-out model with transparency
  • Australia (Privacy Act): Notice and consent requirements
  • Japan (APPI): Explicit consent for sensitive data

Consent Interaction Patterns

Initial Banner Response

Desktop Users

  • • Immediate action: 60-70%
  • • Delayed action (after browsing): 20-25%
  • • No interaction: 10-15%

Mobile Users

  • • Immediate action: 75-85%
  • • Delayed action: 10-15%
  • • No interaction: 5-10%

Preference Changes

Simulate users updating their consent preferences over time:

  • 5-10% of users revisit privacy settings monthly
  • 2-3% withdraw previously given consent
  • 1-2% change from "reject all" to selective acceptance
  • 0.5-1% exercise data portability or deletion rights

Testing Scenarios

Consent Flow Testing

  • Banner display timing and positioning
  • Granular consent option functionality
  • Cookie blocking before consent
  • Consent persistence across sessions
  • Cross-domain consent synchronization

Data Rights Testing

  • Data access request workflows
  • Deletion request processing
  • Opt-out mechanism effectiveness
  • Consent withdrawal impacts
  • Data portability exports

Vendor Integration Testing

  • Google Analytics consent mode
  • Facebook pixel limited data use
  • Third-party cookie blocking
  • Server-side consent enforcement
  • Consent state propagation to CDPs

Configuration Options

Consent Simulation Settings

Geographic Distribution

Set percentage of users from GDPR, CCPA, and other privacy law jurisdictions.

Consent Rates

Configure acceptance rates for each consent category by region.

Interaction Timing

Control how quickly users respond to consent requests.

Rights Exercise Frequency

Set rates for data access, deletion, and portability requests.

Best Practices

  • Test with realistic consent acceptance rates for your industry
  • Include edge cases like users who frequently change preferences
  • Verify that analytics data respects consent choices
  • Test consent banner display on different devices and browsers
  • Simulate users from multiple jurisdictions simultaneously
  • Monitor how consent states affect data quality and completeness

Next: Advanced Configuration
