Consent, proven — not just collected.
Every “I agree” on your product is a legal claim you have to be able to defend. Avaril's Consent Management turns each click into a verifiable, timestamped, DPDPA-compliant record — captured automatically from your codebase, not bolted on as a banner.
The gap between “we have consent” and “we can prove it” is where the risk lives
Projected global consent management market, 2023 to 2032
This stopped being a checkbox feature years ago — it's an entire compliance category, growing because self-built consent logic keeps failing audits. [1]
Individuals hit by data compromises worldwide in 2024
“We didn't have proper consent controls” is rarely the headline — it's almost always the root cause underneath it. [2]
Of companies report being fully compliant with consent-driven regulation
Most orgs think they have a consent mechanism. Very few can produce the audit trail to prove it. [3]
Under the DPDP Act, 2023, failing to maintain a verifiable consent record isn't a minor gap — it's a scheduled penalty. Violations tied to consent and data-fiduciary obligations carry fines of up to ₹50–250 crore per instance, and violations involving children's data specifically carry penalties of up to ₹200 crore.

Consent that lives in your code, not in a cookie banner
Consent Tied to Declared Processing Activities
Every consent request is linked to a specific, registered processing activity — so “what was this consent actually for” is never a guess.
Verifiable, Timestamped Consent Records
Each grant, refusal, and withdrawal is captured as an immutable, auditable record — the artifact you'd hand a regulator, not a database row you hope is right.
Codebase-Level Enforcement
The Avaril SDK checks that consent is actually being requested and checked at the right points in your code — flagging processing that runs without a valid, current consent record behind it.
Withdrawal as a First-Class Action
Users can revoke consent as easily as they gave it, and that revocation propagates back through the same SDK hooks — so downstream processing actually stops.
Docs That Stay in Sync
Your consent flows feed directly into Avaril's auto-generated privacy documentation, so what you tell your users and what your legal docs say never drift apart.

Where this connects to the rest of Avaril
Data Inventory
Consent only means something if you know what it's attached to. Data Inventory maps your Records of Processing Activities (RoPA) and retention schedules so every consent request references a real, understood data flow — not a vague “we collect your data” checkbox.
Understand your RoPA & retentionVerifiable Child Consent
Children can't legally give their own consent — and generic consent flows don't meet that bar. This module adds age-gating, guardian verification, and a consent record that's actually defensible under Section 9 obligations.
Set up verifiable child consentAccessible Consent for Users with Disabilities
A consent mechanism that a screen-reader user or a motor-impaired user can't complete isn't valid consent — it's a barrier. This module gives you accessible, standards-aligned consent flows so “informed and freely given” holds up for every user.
Set up accessible consent flowsBuilt, not promised
What's actually implemented in the codebase today — not on a roadmap.
- Declaring and registering processing activities via the Avaril SDK (@avaril.process(id=...)), so each one has a stable reference consent can attach to
- Automatic flagging when code runs a registered process without a corresponding valid consent check
- Consent state synced into Avaril's auto-generated privacy documentation, so your public-facing policy reflects what's actually running in production
- Retention-window checks tied to the same processing-activity records consent is attached to

Avaril's Consent Management is in early access. We're working with a small group of founding startups to shape it.
Join the early access listWhy this matters under DPDPA
Section 6 of India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 requires consent to be free, specific, informed, unconditional, and unambiguous, given through clear affirmative action, and limited to the personal data necessary for the specified purpose. It also requires that withdrawing consent be at least as easy as giving it. A single blanket “Accept” button covering unrelated purposes, with no equivalent one-click way to undo it, doesn't meet that bar.
This isn't a new idea in Indian policy — the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology's Electronic Consent Framework (ECF) laid out the technical blueprint for exactly this years before DPDPA became law: consent represented as a discrete, structured, revocable artefact, tied to a specific purpose and a specific data flow, rather than a one-time blanket agreement. Avaril builds on that same principle — capturing consent purpose by purpose, tied to a declared processing activity, with withdrawal a single step and every change logged for your compliance record.
