Opt-out consent is the type of consent that is implied from a failure to expressly refuse consent. This means that if a data owner does not actively say they do not consent to their data being used or shared, then their lack of refusal is considered as giving consent. This is different from opt-in consent, where the data owner must actively give their consent before their data can be used or shared.
