Participant Consent is the explicit, informed agreement obtained from individuals before their voice, image, or data are recorded or processed. In meeting and communication contexts it is both an ethical norm and a legal requirement under many wiretapping and data-protection regimes, often necessitating clear notice and an opportunity to decline. Capturing and recording consent state is a prerequisite for lawful recording and downstream processing.
