collect, process, store and protect the personal data of individuals in India. Core requirements include obtaining valid, informed consent, honouring data-principal rights, appointing a Data Protection Officer where required, implementing reasonable security safeguards, and reporting breaches to the Data Protection Board. SecureRoot maps your data flows, identifies gaps against the Act, and builds the consent notices, policies and controls you need - then supports ongoing compliance. Penalties for non-compliance can be significant, so early action matters. Ideal for any business handling Indian users' data. Engagements run from a gap assessment to full implementation and managed compliance.
Our DPDP Act 2023 compliance programme starts with a data-mapping and gap assessment, because you cannot protect or lawfully process data you have not inventoried. We then design consent flows, privacy notices and retention rules that fit how your business actually works.
Beyond the initial project, our DPDP regulatory compliance support keeps you aligned as rules and your data practices evolve – covering DPO duties, breach response and periodic reviews. It connects naturally to our wider data protection services and GRC services.
Build privacy in properly – pair this with our data protection services and GRC services.
The Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 (DPDPA) is India’s first comprehensive data protection law – the long-awaited Indian equivalent of GDPR. Enacted in August 2023 and operational with the DPDP Rules 2025, it applies to every business that processes the digital personal data of Indian residents – regardless of where the business is located. From e-commerce and fintech to healthcare and SaaS, no Indian business is exempt.
DPDPA introduces critical new terms. A Data Fiduciary is any entity that determines purpose and means of processing personal data (most businesses). A Data Principal is the individual whose data is processed. A Significant Data Fiduciary (SDF) is designated by the government based on volume, sensitivity, or risk – facing additional obligations including DPO appointment, DPIA, and independent audit. A Data Processor processes data on behalf of a Fiduciary.
The Data Protection Board of India can impose penalties up to ₹250 crore for serious violations. Beyond fines, non-compliance damages customer trust, blocks enterprise B2B contracts (large customers now demand DPDPA evidence before procurement), exposes you to consumer lawsuits, and attracts regulator scrutiny. The good news: DPDP Act compliance India is achievable in 3-6 months with the right approach. The bad news: organisations that delay face escalating risk as enforcement ramps up. DPDPA is now a part of doing business in India.
We follow DPDP Act 2023 obligations, DPDP Rules 2025, and ISO 27701 privacy management standard. Every DPDPA engagement runs through these six phases – from data mapping to ongoing compliance.
We catalog every personal data element your business collects, processes, stores, and shares – building Records of Processing Activities (RoPA). Sources, purposes, lawful bases, retention, recipients, third parties, cross-border transfers — complete data flow visibility.
We compare your current state to every DPDPA obligation: consent management, Data Principal rights, breach notification, DPO requirements, cross-border transfer rules, children’s data protections. Output: prioritized remediation roadmap.
We develop or refine: Privacy Notice, Consent Forms, Data Retention Policy, Data Subject Rights Procedure, Breach Notification Procedure, Data Processor Agreements, Cross-Border Transfer Process – all customised to your business.
If you’re a Significant Data Fiduciary (or want to be ready), we help appoint and operationalize the DPO function: charter, reporting lines, training, tools, and engagement model. We also implement DPIA process and consent manager integration.
We conduct internal DPDPA audit verifying every obligation is met with evidence. Documentation pack includes: RoPA, Privacy Notices, Consent Records, DPIA reports, Data Processor Agreements, breach register, and Board-ready compliance dashboard.
DPDPA is not a one-time achievement. We support ongoing compliance: quarterly DPDPA reviews, breach response support, Data Principal rights handling, DPDP Rules updates, regulator inquiries, and continuous evidence collection.
