Account Holders Consent
Clear permission for account use and data sharing
Account holders consent refers to a customer giving clear, informed permission for a financial provider to access or act on their account. The account holder receives plain information about what data the provider will access and why. Consent may allow sharing transaction history, initiate payments, or connecting accounts to third-party services. Organizations must record when and how they collected consent and must let customers withdraw consent quickly. Transparent consent protects customers and reduces fraud and disputes.
