Any consent that has been verified directly from the subscriber/ recipient in a robust and verifiable manner and recorded by the consent registrar is known to be explicit in nature.
Example:
Any individual who registers his/ her e-mail Id on a website to receive newsletters/ information about new products and services.
Whereas, an inferred consent is any permission that can be reasonably inferred from the subscriber's conduct or the relationship between the subscriber and the telemarketer/ principal entity.
Example:
An individual takes a personal loan from a bank and receives messages related to loan settlement.
