Consent & Preference Management

Collect consent. Sync preferences. Act on both instantly.

Only Transcend answers “can I use this data” in real-time across marketing platforms, data stack, and AI training models. Enforcing consent and preferences at the network level across web, mobile, and backend, the platform orchestrates every communication and privacy preference to all your downstream systems.

Trusted by leading brands

The Status QuoConsent only gets recorded. Preferences are fragmented.

A banner records a choice. It doesn't block a cookie, and it definitely doesn't tell your team what a user actually wants. Most tools stop at the front end: fragmented consent and preferences sit in a database that marketing can't touch without a spreadsheet export or a favor from engineering. That's not compliance. That's paperwork.

With Transcend, consent and preferences are encoded and enforced across every system

Built for scale, not stitched together

Scale to new brands, markets, and domains without rebuilding your consent infrastructure. Govern every website, app, and region from one dashboard, and adapt to new regulations through configuration, not custom engineering.

Enforced everywhere, automatically

The moment a user updates a preference or opts out, that choice is enforced across your entire stack in real time. Every downstream system, from your CRM to your ad platforms, is updated automatically, with no manual sync or engineering effort.

Data your AI initiatives can actually use

Every consent choice, including Do Not Train signals, is logged with a timestamp and full audit trail, so your AI teams build on data that's provably permissioned the moment a regulator or model auditor asks.

the Transcend differenceThe gap between recording consent and enforcing it

Blocks trackers before they fire

Airgap.js runs at the network level, not the tag manager, intercepting cookies, pixels, and scripts before they ever leave the browser. When a user opts out, tracking stops immediately, so you're not left hoping a script catches up later. That's the difference between a banner that says you're compliant and infrastructure that keeps you compliant.

Prevents conflicting consent, before it happens

When an anonymous choice and an authenticated record disagree, like an opt-out on one device and a login on another, Transcend applies your chosen rule automatically: most recent wins, most restrictive wins, or the account record always governs. One consent state, decided in advance, not reconciled after the fact.

Seamless integrations, enforced downstream, continuously

Transcend integrates with every system, from internal databases to SaaS tools to unify your fragmented permissioned data. Every integration is built and managed in-house on a zero-trust, secure architecture, so governance and data decisions reach downstream into every corner of the data stack, in real-time. Custom integrations available.
