147 | Colorado Privacy Act Rules
B.  If Consent is obtained through an electronic interface, the Consumer shall be able to refuse or withdraw Consent through
the same or similar electronic interface.
C.  When using an electronic interface, and when feasible based on the Consumer’s relationship with the Controller, a
Controller may allow Consumers to track what Processing activities they have Consented to or opted out of.
D.  There shall be no detriment to a Consumer for refusing or withdrawing Consent, consistent with C.R.S. § 6-1-1308(1)(c)
(II), and 4 CCR 904-3, Rule 6.05.
1.  Notwithstanding 4 CCR 904-3 Rule 7.07(D), if a Consumer refuses to Consent to, or withdraws consent for the
Processing of Sensitive Data or Personal Data strictly necessary for a program, product or service, the Controller is no
longer obligated to provide that program, product or service.
E.  If a Consumer withdraws Consent for a Processing activity, subject to Consent under C.R.S. §§ 6-1-1306(1)(a)(IV)(C),
1308(4), and 1308(7), the Controller shall cease that Processing activity and, in the notice required by C.R.S. § 6-1-1306(2),
provide the Consumer instructions on how to exercise the right to deletion, provide a link to exercise the right to deletion,
or inform the Consumer that information regarding the right to delete their Personal Data can be found in the Controller’s
privacy notice.
Rule 7.08 REFRESHING CONSENT
A.  When a Consumer has not interacted with a Controller in the prior twenty-four (24) months, the Controller must refresh
Consent in compliance with all requirements of this Part 7 to:
1. Continue Processing Sensitive Data pursuant to C.R.S. § 6-1-1308(7); or
2.  Continue Processing Personal Data for a Secondary Use pursuant to C.R.S. § 1308(4), if the Secondary Use involves
Profiling for a decision that results in the provision or denial of financial or lending services, housing, insurance, education
enrollment or opportunity, criminal justice, employment opportunities, health-care services, or access to essential goods
or services.
B.  Controllers are not required to refresh Consent under part A of this section where a Consumer has access and ability to
update their opt-out preferences at any time through a user-controlled interface.
C.  If a Processing purpose materially evolves such that the new purpose becomes a secondary use pursuant to C.R.S. § 6-1-
1308(4), the Consumer’s original Consent is no longer valid, and the Controller must obtain new Consent pursuant to Part
7 of these rules.
Rule 7.09 USER INTERFACE DESIGN, CHOICE ARCHITECTURE, AND DARK PATTERNS
A.  The following principles should be considered when designing a user interface or a choice architecture used to obtain
Consent when required under C.R.S. §§ 6-1-1303(5), 6-1- 1306(1)(a)(IV)(C), 6-1-1308(4), and 6-1-1308(7):
1.  Consent choice options should be presented to Consumers in a symmetrical way that does not impose unequal weight
or focus on one available choice over another such that a Consumer’s ability to consent is impaired or subverted.
a.  Example: One choice should not be presented with less prominent size, font, or styling than the other choice.
Presenting an “I accept” button in a larger size than the “I do not accept” button would not be considered equal or
symmetrical. Presenting an “I do not accept” button in a greyed-out color while the “I accept” button is presented in
a bright or obvious color would not be considered equal or symmetrical.
