Consent is one of the most frequently misapplied lawful bases in UK GDPR — and one of the most actively scrutinised by the ICO. Pre-ticked boxes are invalid. Bundled consent is invalid. Consent that is harder to withdraw than to give is invalid. For FCA-regulated firms, Consumer Duty requires firms to ensure customers genuinely understand what they're agreeing to. The FCA doesn't wait.
What's included:
General consent form: standard data processing consent, affirmative action requirements, and evidence retention framework
Parental consent form and withdrawal template: legal requirements, ready-to-use forms, and processing requirements
Explicit consent for special category data: regulatory framework, explicit consent template, and validation requirements
Third-party disclosure consent: disclosure consent form and outsourcing arrangements consent template
Electronic consent and double opt-in: unticked box implementation, double opt-in verification, audit trail requirements, and technical standards
Consent withdrawal templates: general withdrawal form, electronic withdrawal form, and legal exception documentation
Compliance checklist and sign-off: pre-implementation verification, version control, and final compliance attestation
+ much more
Who is this for?
Data Protection Officers, Compliance Officers, marketing teams, and operations staff at FCA-regulated firms who need a complete, ICO-ready consent and withdrawal template pack.
How it works
Step 1 — Read it. Every section exists for a reason, grounded in a specific regulatory obligation.
Step 2 — Understand it. Map the content against your current practices. Identify where you're strong and where gaps exist.
Step 3 — Make it yours. Tailor the language to reflect how your organisation actually operates. A policy that sounds like your firm is a policy your people will follow.
Step 4 — Take ownership. Assign clear accountability — Board approval, named SMF holder, designated policy owner. A policy without an owner is a liability, not an asset.
Step 5 — Operationalise it. Embed the policy into your governance calendar, training programme, and annual review cycle. This is where compliance becomes culture.
