Eskimi and GDPR
GPDR requires companies to have applicable legal basis for:
1. Any kind of user data used
2. All ways of how is that data used
In online advertising, companies normally use non-personally identifiable data (such as cookies, device IDs) to target users and measure ad performance.
In order to trackperform these activities, an applicable legal basis is needed. It is Eskimi, as well as most of the market, understanding that 2 legal basis are appropriate here: consent and legitimate interest.
Consent
Consent is when user says 'yes' to the kinds of data and to the ways of data. User can agree or deny to companies processing user data.
Legitimate interest
Legitimate interest is when a company must use user data to survive and it can not hurt the user in any way. User can object to legitimate interest claims.
How to achieve all this for companies?
There can be multiple ways of asking users for consent and/or showing legitimate interest declarations. The most used one, and the one we use in GDPREskimi, countriesis by using Transparency and Consent Framework (TCF).
What's TCF?
TCF is framework to pass if user consented and/or objected to legitimate interest to online advertising companies. It is not the law - it's how companies like Eskimi understand the law.
TCF consists of:
* CMP (consent management platform): actual popup where user sees and selects: data usage purposes, companies
* Preferences string:
* Vendors: companies using user data
Here's a CMP example:

To sum up, TCF allows:
* Showing purposes - how will companies use data
* Showing types - what data will those companies use
* Allowing user accept/reject usage of this data
* Passing user preferences to the companies
What is TCF ?
The IAB Europe Transparency and Consent Framework (TCF) is the only GDPR consent solution built by the industry for the industry, creating a true industry-standard approach.
The TCF’s simple objective is to help all parties in the digital advertising chain ensure that they comply with the EU’s GDPR and ePrivacy Directive when processing personal data or accessing and/or storing information on a user’s device, such as cookies, advertising identifiers, device identifiers and other tracking technologies.
The TCF is a combination of key resources:

CMP usually handles a lot of integration automatically and provides customisability in order to correctly generate the consent string.
