Compliance & Assurance

The Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act is India's comprehensive privacy law governing how personal data is handled. Any organization processing the digital personal data of Indian citizens must comply to protect individual privacy and avoid massive financial penalties. It marks a significant shift in how businesses must manage data, requiring transparency and accountability at every step.

As a data fiduciary, you are legally responsible for determining the purpose and means of processing personal data. We help you implement the necessary technical and organizational safeguards to protect this data and ensure lawful processing under the DPDP Act. Your role is to act as a steward of the data, ensuring it is used only as intended and kept secure from unauthorized access.

We design consent management systems that ensure user consent is free, specific, informed, and unconditional, as required by the law. These systems also provide users with an easy mechanism to withdraw their consent at any time, which must be respected immediately. Building a transparent consent process not only ensures compliance but also builds significant trust with your user base.

The DPDP Act grants users, known as Data Principals, the right to access, correct, and erase their personal data upon request. We help you build the technical workflows and internal processes required to handle these requests quickly, securely, and within the legal timeframe. Providing these rights is a core obligation that requires deep visibility into where and how user data is stored.

The act governs how personal data can be transferred outside of India, often restricted to specific trusted jurisdictions. We review your data flows, assess the legal standing of international partners, and implement safeguards to ensure all cross-border transfers remain compliant. This prevents legal complications and ensures that Indian citizens' data remains protected even when it leaves the country.
