What technical updates are being introduced?

An upcoming OneTrust product update will make the previously optional Disclosed Vendors segment in the TC string mandatory.

This update provides vendors with a clear binary signal:

• 1 = disclosed to the user
• 0 = not disclosed

Going forward, when the TC string is generated, there will be a dedicated section for disclosedVendors. Refer to the OneTrust Release Notes for updates on when this change will be fully adopted across OneTrust Consent Management Platform (CMP) products.

Examples:

• 2.2 string without the disclosedVendors section:

  CQZynXAQZynXAAcABBDECCFgAP_AAEPAAChQF5wAQF5gXnABAXmAAAAA.f_gACHgAAAAA

• 2.3 string containing the disclosedVendors section:

  CQZynXAQZynXAAcABBDECCFgAP_AAEPAAChQF5wAQF5gXnABAXmAAAAA.f_gACHgAAAAA.IF5wAQF5gAAA
