3. Consent
This section offers the flexibility to add granularity to the Consent activity by preparing multiple separate positions to request participants' consent as required by the initiative.
The "Consent" section defaults to one consent position and the supported consent question type is Boolean, allowing the participant to choose from two pre-defined options to either confirm or reject consent.
The default consent position, "By checking this box, I confirm that I have read the Terms and I am willing to participate," is included in all Consent activities with default settings:
- Required question,
- Two answer options - "Yes" and "No".
Adjust default settings as needed by applying General and Logic settings. Read more about Activity element settings.

Consent documents cannot be changed, once at least one participant has given their consent in the specific Consent activity.
To ensure transparency, immutability of information and protection of participants, consent documents cannot be changed after at least one participant has given his or her consent in the published Consent activity. For that reason, cases where the sections Document and/or Consent require changes after the activity is already in use call for a completely new Consent activity to be created.
