The Testimonial Consent Form is a crucial document for businesses operating in Germany who wish to collect and use customer or client testimonials in their marketing materials. This document becomes necessary whenever an organization wants to publicly share customer feedback, success stories, or endorsements while complying with German data protection laws and GDPR requirements. The form must be signed before any testimonial can be used in marketing materials, websites, social media, or other promotional channels.
