What is IAB TCF?
The IAB Transparency and Consent Framework (TCF) is a technical standard for the digital advertising industry. It is designed to help all parties in the digital advertising chain ensure that they comply with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the 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.
