# Simple Consent

### Introduction

To set if the user has given or withheld consent for the collection and use of personal data (used for non-IAB partners), use the SimpleConsent.

### Usage

To define if the user has given or withheld consent for the collection and use of personal data (used for non-IAB partners) set configuration type parameter as `simpleConsent` and use `nonIABConsent` parameter as:

* `obtained` if the user has given the consent.
* `withheld` if the user has declined.

If Simple Consent is used, it will automatically read the IAB Consent String stored (by third-party CMP) in SharedPreferences (if available).

```typescript
AATKitIonic.initialize({
  consent: {
    type: "simple",
    nonIABConsent: "obtained",
    vendorConsentObtainedNetworks: [ "adcolony", "admob", "unity" ]
  }
});
```
