What is the importance of record maintenance in consent management?

Keeping records for consent management is all about staying organized and playing it safe. It’s like having a backup to prove you got permission to use someone’s data, which is a big deal for staying on the right side of privacy laws like DPDP Act. If anyone ever questions you, those records show you did things the right way. They also help keep track if someone changes their mind or updates their consent. It just makes everything smoother and keeps you out of trouble when it comes to data privacy.
