Consent receipt

Lock in what you actually agreed to

A consent receipt is a portable, primary-source record of which version of The Economist's policy you accepted. It embeds the hash of that version, so if The Economist later asserts you agreed to different terms, you have proof to the contrary. Save the JSON. Print the text. Keep both.
