consent definition

What does consent mean? In legal practice, consent describes a person’s free, informed and voluntary agreement to a proposed act or data use. For data protection, consent is defined in legislation: under the UK GDPR and, in Ireland, the EU GDPR, it is a freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes, signified by a statement or clear affirmative action, agreeing to the processing of personal data. It cannot be inferred from silence, pre‑ticked boxes or inactivity; must be granular and documented; may need to be explicit for special-category data; and can be withdrawn at any time,...

This Practice Note This Practice Note reviews mechanisms used in settling litigation. A Tomlin order consists of a consent order paired with a schedule. It operates to stay proceedings on terms that have been agreed. The provisions contained in the schedule may remain confidential. This Practice Note describes the scope of confidentiality attaching to the schedule and sets out how it differs from a standard consent order. Sample wording for a Tomlin order is included, alongside links to precedents, as well as guidance on court approval. It also addresses varying, setting aside and enforcing a Tomlin order, including the considerations the court will take into account when handling applications for each. Further guidance is provided on interpreting and applying the relevant provisions of the CPR; however, some courts and divisions impose very specific requirements for both drafting and approval, and for approaching the schedule and confidentiality issues. Accordingly, you must consider the particular rules and court guide provisions in the forum where your claim is proceeding when drawing up the Tomlin order...
