New integration for Slack, MS Teams and more
With the current update, a new integration function for Slack, MS Teams, Zapier and n8n is now available in the system. The function conveniently notifies you in Slack, Teams or any other tool about important changes and news (e.g. new cookies found) in your CMP account. You no longer need to actively log into the CMP to check for updates. The system sends you a message directly from the backend to the appropriate channel.
The new integration functions can be found under: Menu> Account> Integrations.

IAB Europe on ‘Consent or Pay’ models
IAB Europe responds to the EDPB ‘s recent opinion on the “Consent or Pay” model. This model, introduced by major online platforms such as Meta, gives users the choice of consenting to data processing for personalized advertising or paying for an ad-free service. In its statement of 23 April, IAB Europe expresses its concern that such models could create legal uncertainty for companies. They also fear that the EDPB misrepresents the “consent or pay” model as a system that could treat data protection rights as a luxury that only a few can afford.

Data protection in Germany: New developments and requirements
The data protection landscape in Germany continues to develop. This development is driven by increased interest from the population and the government as well as by important court decisions such as the ruling of the Cologne Higher Regional Court, which calls for simple and user-friendly consent options for cookies. Regional reports highlight pressing issues such as health data protection and the use of artificial intelligence and call for regulatory innovations. Companies must therefore remain vigilant and adapt to meet the high legal requirements and expectations for correct consent mechanisms.

Google supports the IAB Global Privacy Platform (GPP) in additional US states
