Mobile App Consent (App CMP)

Overview

The Mobile Consent Management Platform (App CMP) in BigID enables organizations to manage user consent and preferences for mobile applications on iOS and Android, alongside their existing web (cookie) consent, all from a single, centralized platform.

Built as part of the broader BigID Consent framework, it provides a unified workspace where privacy teams can configure, deploy, and monitor consent banners for mobile apps.

BigID’s Mobile CMP automatically scans mobile applications to detect:

  • SDKs integrated in the app,

  • Permissions the app requests from users (e.g., location, camera, contacts).

The system then automatically classifies detected SDKs and permissions into privacy-related categories (such as Necessary, Statistics, Marketing and Preferences), streamlining banner configuration and compliance review.


Key Capabilities

  • Unified Management: Manage both web and mobile consent in one centralized interface.

  • App Scanning: Automatically detect SDKs, permissions in your mobile apps.

  • Automatic Categorization: BigID classifies all discovered SDKs and permissions into consent categories for faster configuration.

  • Consent Banner & Preferences: Create and customize in-app consent prompts aligned with your brand design.

  • Dynamic Geolocation Rules: Adapt consent flows based on user location and local regulation.

  • Integration SDKs: Integrate easily with your mobile app using native SDKs for iOS and Android.

  • Analytics & Reporting: Monitor consent performance and compliance metrics across apps.


Typical Workflow

  1. Add a New App – Register your iOS or Android app in BigID.

  2. Scan the App – Detect SDKs, permissions, and automatically categorize them.

  3. Configure the Banner – Design and edit in-app consent prompts with the Banner Editor.

  4. Apply Geolocation Rules – Define behavior for users in different regions.

  5. Integrate SDK – Embed the consent SDK in your mobile app codebase.

  6. Monitor and Optimize – Track consent performance and ensure ongoing compliance.
