Management of Commanders Act Consent vendors.

Data Governance > Consent Management > Vendors

In this section you can manage your Commanders Act Consent vendors. These vendors will be used by your privacy center to provide users with detailed privacy management options.

Vendors

To enable native vendors go to Data Governance > Consent Management > Settings and activate the custom vendors option.

For customers still using the v1.0 privacy center template (deprecated as of 2019) Vendor activation will automatically upgrade your privacy center to version 2.0.

Click ADD VENDOR to add vendors to your Commanders Act Consent installation. You can select vendors available on Commanders Act TMS (Predefined Vendors) or add custom vendors (Custom Vendor) by selecting the respective tab. A Commanders Act vendor is available by default.

Each vendor can be mapped to Consent categories with the respective dropdown. This allows users to provide consent to all vendors of a category at once in the privacy center. A PEN icon allows to edit information of the vendor that is displayed in the privacy center. Following fields are available per vendor. A TRASH icon allows to remove the vendor.

To enable Google ACM vendors go to Data Governance > Consent Management > Settings and activate the IAB option and the Google ACM vendors.

Google Additional Consent Mode (ACM) allows to manage consent for Google Ad Technology Providers (ATP) (that are not part of the IAB TCF Global Vendors List) alongside IAB TCF vendors.

Add Google ACM vendor allows to add Google ACM vendors to add a Google ATP to your Commanders Act Consent installation. Each vendor has to be mapped to a TrustCommander category.

Descriptions for the ATP that are shown in the Consent banner (into the privacy center) are automatically loaded from the Google ACM list.
