The ICO has published its final consent guidance ahead of the 25 May GDPR deadline, which says that organisations won’t need to “automatically repaper or refresh” existing old consents.  The guidance, published by the Information Commissioner’s Office says that organisations will not be required to automatically refresh all old consents, but stressed it was “important to check your processes and records in detail to be sure existing consents meet the GDPR standard”.
