Adobe Experience Platform makes personalization possible on a large scale for enterprises, allowing them to use customer data to deliver valuable user experiences. In today’s privacy-focused environment, providing these personalized experiences powered by consented data allows organizations to keep their consumers’ privacy a priority while giving them a unique experience tailored to their preferences. OneTrust Consent and Preferences enables businesses to do this by integrating consent data into Adobe Experience Platform within Adobe Privacy and Security Shield. 

“Evolving global data protection laws and consumer privacy expectations have made consented first-party data critical to marketers,” said Arun Karthick Manoharan, product director for Adobe Experience Platform, Adobe. “Leveraging Adobe’s advanced consent enforcement capabilities to automate and govern data use, OneTrust’s integration with Adobe Experience Platform enables brands to ensure marketers only access and use consented data to deliver personalized experiences.”

How does the integration work? 

This integration can be broken down into 5 steps from consent capture to activating personalized campaigns without compromising consumer privacy. 

Step 1: Consent Capture

Capture consumers’ consent and preferences around data collection and usage using OneTrust Consent and Preferences.

Step 2: Consent Storage

Consent data is then collected and stored in the OneTrust consent database. Centralize consent data collected across domains, browsers, apps, and devices to build detailed audit trails and support proof of compliance. This data is then integrated with Adobe Experience Platform for activation. 

Step 3: Consent Enforcement

Set consent policies in place in Adobe Experience Platform using only consumer profiles that have provided consent for your data use case. To set a personalization campaign, for example, define the marketing action taking place (e.g. cross-site targeting), and then set which consent field to filter out for, in this case only those who consented to personalized content. 

Step 4: Consent Insights

After setting these policies in place, Adobe Experience Platform then provides insights on the consent data in use, displaying what percentage of overall users are qualified for different types of campaigns based on their preference data. 

Step 5: Consent Activation

When activating campaigns for different user segments, the integration with OneTrust Consent and Preferences will now ensure that this consent data is activated, letting Adobe Experience Platform users know that their campaigns are going to an addressable audience that takes the desired user segment and consent policies into account.
