Consent receipts
What it is
An append-only record of what a subject chose, tied to a consent version (and related hashes/ids as stored by the product).
Why it exists
Without receipts, “they clicked Accept” is not reconstructible. Receipts make choices durable and queryable in the console.
How Erasure uses it
- Created when the SDK posts consent after a choice
- Preference updates create new receipts—not in-place edits
- Listed under Receipts in the project
- Inform publish evidence (counts for a version)
Receipts are for operational proof. They are not a substitute for legal counsel.
