Simplifying DPDP Compliance with Ease
India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP)
The Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act is India’s data privacy law aimed at protecting individuals’ personal data while balancing the need for lawful data processing. It emphasizes principles like data minimization, purpose limitation, and user consent, granting individuals rights such as data access, correction, and deletion.

With its automated risk management and monitoring features, Data Foresight helps organizations align with DPDP requirements, ensuring robust data protection.
Achieving Compliance Excellence
Achieving compliance is more than meeting standards – it’s about building trust and minimizing risks. Our solutions ensure seamless alignment with regulatory requirements
Understand DPDP Requirements
Familiarize your organization with the key provisions of the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, including principles like consent-based data processing, data minimization, and purpose limitation. Identify how the Act applies to your business operations and data handling practices.
Perform Data Mapping and Classification
Conduct a comprehensive data inventory to identify and classify personal data within your systems. Map data flows to understand where data is collected, processed, stored, and shared, ensuring you have visibility into sensitive information.
Revise Data Collection Practices
Ensure data collection is limited to what is necessary for specific purposes and is based on explicit consent from data principals (individuals). Update consent forms to make them clear, concise, and compliant with DPDP requirements.
Implement Data Subject Rights Management
Establish systems to handle requests from individuals to access, correct, or delete their personal data. Automate these processes to efficiently manage requests within the timeframes specified under the DPDP Act.
Develop a Privacy
Policy
Create or update your privacy policy to include information on data collection, usage, sharing, storage, and the rights of individuals under the DPDP Act. Ensure the policy is easily accessible and written in a simple, understandable language.
Strengthen Data Security Measures
Implement technical and organizational measures to secure personal data against unauthorized access, breaches, or misuse. Use encryption, firewalls, and intrusion detection systems, and conduct regular vulnerability assessments to identify risks.
Ensure Data Breach Notification Readiness
Prepare a data breach response plan to quickly detect, contain, and report breaches to the Data Protection Board of India (DPBI) and affected individuals as required by the DPDP Act.
Monitor Third-Party Data Processors
Review and update contracts with third-party vendors to ensure they comply with DPDP requirements. Include clauses that mandate secure handling of personal data and adherence to applicable laws.
Implement Consent Management Systems
Deploy tools to manage, track, and update individual consents effectively. Ensure that individuals can easily withdraw consent if they choose to do so.
Conduct Regular Audits and Assessments
Schedule periodic internal and external audits to evaluate compliance efforts. Identify gaps or areas for improvement and implement corrective measures to strengthen your compliance framework.
Stay Updated on Regulatory Changes
Continuously monitor updates to the DPDP Act and guidelines from the Data Protection Board of India. Adapt your policies, procedures, and controls to align with any changes in the regulatory landscape.
Document Compliance Efforts
Maintain detailed records of all compliance-related activities, such as audits, training sessions, data mapping exercises, and breach response actions. These records demonstrate accountability and readiness for regulatory inspections.
