Orchestrating consent across GDPR, DPDP, CPRA, and LGPD
One product, many laws. The winning pattern is a shared purpose catalog plus jurisdiction rules — not 12 unrelated banners.
Global companies fail when each region forks a WordPress plugin. Purposes drift. Vendor lists diverge. Evidence cannot be joined.
A better model: define purposes once (analytics, ads, personalization, strict necessities), then attach jurisdiction rules: opt-in vs opt-out, GPC, children’s flags, language, and retention.
Geolocation with humility
IP geolocation is imperfect. When unsure, apply the stricter rule. Let users self-identify region in the preference center if needed. Log which rule set fired.
Educational overview only — not legal advice. Confirm requirements with counsel for your products and markets.
