UK Court of Appeal Confirms Objective Test for Consent Validity in RTM v Bonne Terre

On 21 April 2026, the U.K. Court of Appeal (Civil Division) in RTM v Bonne Terre Ltd [2026] EWCA Civ 488 confirmed that the test for valid consent under data protection and ePrivacy law is objective, not subjective. The court set aside the earlier High Court judgment which had assessed consent based on the individual's state of mind, including whether a gambling addiction diminished their ability to freely consent. The Court of Appeal held that controllers need only demonstrate that an individual made a statement or took a clear affirmative action indicating agreement, assessed purely objectively. The case has been remitted to the High Court.
