Segment uses the [consent object](/docs/privacy/consent-in-unify/#segment-consent-preference-event) on Segment events, including the [Segment Consent Preference Updated](/docs/privacy/consent-in-unify/#segment-consent-preference-updated-event) Track event, to evaluate and store consent preferences on an [end user's Profile](/docs/privacy/consent-management/consent-in-unify#segment-consent-preference-updated-event).

Once an end user's consent preferences are [stored on their Profile](/docs/privacy/consent-management/consent-in-unify#segment-consent-preference-updated-event), you can create Engage Audiences that respect end user consent preferences to better comply with privacy regulations.

## Enforce consent preferences in your Audiences

Before using an end user's consent preferences to create your Audiences, you must complete the following prerequisites:
18-
- You set up [Consent in Segment Connections](/docs/privacy/consent-management/configure-consent-management) or [Consent in Reverse ETL](/docs/privacy/consent-management/consent-in-retl) and have events stamped with the [consent object](/docs/privacy/consent-management/consent-in-segment-connections#consent-object) streaming from your source or available in your data warehouse.
19-
- You generate the [Segment Consent Preference Updated](/docs/privacy/consent-management/consent-in-unify#segment-consent-preference-updated-event) Track event each time a user updates their consent preferences. This event stamps each Profile with a user's consent preferences.

- You verified that your Profiles have consent preferences by creating an Audience with a consent trait condition. If the majority of Profiles have consent preferences on them, you're ready to enable consent enforcement in your Unify space.

> If you have Profiles with consent preferences for some, but not all consent categories, Segment adds all categories to a `categoryPreferences` object on an Identify or Track call and considers consent categories without current consent preferences to be `false`. If you have Profiles with no consent preferences, Segment automatically adds an empty `categoryPreferences` object on an Identify or Track call and prevents those Profiles from flowing downstream to your destination.

Once your consent categories are set up, you've mapped your destinations to a consent category, and each of your Profiles is stamped with your end user's consent preferences, you're ready to enable Consent Management in your Unify space.

Destinations mapped to a consent category only receive the Profiles of users who have given consent to that category. Destinations not mapped to a consent category receive all Profiles in an Audience, regardless of the Profile's consent preferences.

If you opt to send your Audience to multiple destinations belonging to multiple categories, then each destination receives data for the Profiles that have consent to the destination’s mapped category.
