A CDR consent is a time-limited agreement that allows Redbark Sync to access your banking data. Each consent is tied to a specific bank and expires after 12 months.
Under Australia’s Consumer Data Right, you control how your banking data is shared. Consents expire after 12 months and can be withdrawn at any time.
Consent cards
Each consent shows:
- Bank name and status icon
- Purpose — what the data is used for (e.g. “Transaction sync”)
- Status badge — Active, Expired, or Withdrawn
- Data shared — the types of data included (e.g. Transactions, Accounts, Balances)
- Created date and expiry date
Statuses
| Status | Description |
|---|
| Active | Consent is valid and data can be accessed |
| Expired | The 12-month consent period has ended |
| Withdrawn | You have revoked the consent |
Expiring consents
Consents last 12 months from the date they were created. A warning badge appears when a consent is within 30 days of expiring. Once expired, syncs using that bank connection will stop running.
Withdrawing consent
Click Withdraw Consent on an active consent to revoke data access immediately. This will disable any syncs that use the associated bank connection. Data that has already been synced to your spreadsheets is not deleted.
Re-consenting
To restore access after a consent expires or is withdrawn, add a new bank connection from the connections page. This will create a fresh 12-month consent.
