What does opt-in policy mean?

Opt-in policy is a user-centric approach to data collection and usage. Unlike an opt-out policy where users are automatically enrolled and must actively choose to withdraw, an opt-in policy requires explicit user consent before collecting and using their data. This approach respects user privacy and ensures that organizations obtain consent before processing personal information. In opt-in policies, users have control over their data, and they can choose whether or not they wish to share it. This approach aligns with data protection regulations and enhances user trust in organizations handling their data.
