Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed detecting whether calls to consent rejection functions originate with an automated tool or a human user. The system can determine that a calls to a consent rejection function are likely from an automated tool by determining that a rate and/or number of calls to a function exceeds a threshold and/or that the calls are received before the interface requesting user consent preferences has been rendered to the user. The system can also require that a function call include a token that an automated tool would not have knowledge of or access to and reject function calls without this token. The system can also use private consent rejection function calls with obfuscated names and/or provide a follow up consent rejections confirmation interface requiring human user input before process a consent rejection.
