An Explicit Consent Handler captures clear, affirmative consent (checkbox, toggle, signature) before processing sensitive or optional data. It avoids implied consent and records context so businesses can show users truly agreed to the precise use.

Key Points:
– Requires active opt-in for sensitive uses
– Logs method, time, and language shown
– Prevents ambiguous consent interpretations

A financial app requires users to tick an opt-in box before storing transaction history for analytics.
