# Consent Directory

The **Consent Foundation** has developed an **open-source platform called the Consent Directory** — a unified solution designed to simplify and streamline **consent compliance** under the **Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDPA), 2023**.

The Consent Directory will provide a **standardized catalogue of consent purpose statements** across key industries such as **finance, insurance, healthcare, telecom, and e-governance**, ensuring that organizations can implement clear, consistent, and compliant consent notices without starting from scratch. Each purpose statement will be **specific, pre-translated into all 22 scheduled Indian languages**, and **ready to use in consent forms and privacy notices**, enabling faster adoption and wider accessibility.

By offering **predefined, regulator-aligned purposes** and **standard identifiers for interoperability** between Consent Management Platforms (CMPs), data fiduciaries, and processors, the Consent Directory minimizes operational friction and reduces compliance risks. Its structured framework also makes **regulatory audits and consent traceability** more efficient, helping organizations maintain trust and accountability while focusing on innovation.
