By PRNewswire On Dec 3, 2018

Organizations Can Deliver a Unified User Experience Leveraging the Industry Leaders in Digital Identity and Preference Management

Gartner Identity & Access Management (IAM) Summit, ForgeRock and OneTrust announced a strategic partnership to help businesses bridge their digital identity management with a user’s specific consent and preference choices. The partnership will integrate the ForgeRock Identity Platform with the OneTrust Universal Consent and Preference Management to give users a seamless online experience, linking their digital profiles to their unique choices around marketing preferences.

New and updated global privacy regulations are compelling organizations to reassess the way they collect personal data and communicate with their users. For example, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has specific requirements around collecting consent that is specific, unbundled and easy to withdraw, and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) specifies companies to have a “do not sell my personal data” button on their website.

The ForgeRock/OneTrust partnership will enable companies to deliver a seamless experience to satisfy these regulatory requirements and user choice challenges. Organizations will be able to leverage industry leaders in both digital identity and consent and preference management to deliver a seamless experience from a user signing on to an online platform and to update their marketing preferences.
