💡 [GDPR] Handle user consent

[bcaudan]

A current workaround to delay data collection until consent is given by the end user is to have this kind of setup:

if (userConsent) {
  DD_RUM.init(...)
}

However:

• it does not handle cases were consent is withdrawn
• it requires customer to discover and maintain this logic

We should provide an API to allow customer to communicate the consent changes to the browser SDK like in the other SDKs, cf https://docs.datadoghq.com/real_user_monitoring/flutter/setup/#set-tracking-consent

Any update on this folks? We're in a bit of a bind without it as the simple if statement workaround will not suffice in our use case where users can change their consent preferences at any time.

Hello @reggieWayflyer,
It is still in our radar but has not been prioritised yet. We will keep you updated about it.

There's a PR open around this

Hi @reggieWayflyer,
Yes, we are actively working on it and it should be available in the near future.
