{/* MANUAL-CONTENT-START:intro */}
[Ketch](https://www.ketch.com/) is an AI-powered privacy, consent, and data governance platform that helps organizations automate compliance with global privacy regulations. It provides tools for managing consent preferences, handling data subject rights requests, and controlling subscription communications.

With Ketch, you can:

- **Retrieve consent status**: Query the current consent preferences for any data subject across configured purposes and legal bases
- **Update consent preferences**: Set or modify consent for specific purposes (e.g., analytics, marketing) with the appropriate legal basis (opt-in, opt-out, disclosure)
- **Manage subscriptions**: Get and update subscription topic preferences and global controls across contact methods like email and SMS
- **Invoke data subject rights**: Submit privacy rights requests including data access, deletion, correction, and processing restriction under regulations like GDPR and CCPA

To use Ketch, drop the Ketch block into your workflow and provide your organization code, property code, and environment code. The Ketch Web API is a public API — no API key or OAuth credentials are required. Identity is determined by the organization and property codes along with the data subject's identity (e.g., email address).

These capabilities let you automate privacy compliance workflows, respond to user consent changes in real time, and manage data subject rights requests as part of your broader automation pipelines.
