What engagements deliver

Why teams bring us in after DPDP becomes urgent

DPDP becomes the whole picture, not a policy update

Teams come in asking about DPDP and leave with consent, vendor risk, access control, logging and breach response connected as one programme — plus the ISO 27001 groundwork enterprise customers ask for.

Obligations turn into owners, workflows and evidence

Not another policy pack. Privacy obligations are converted into named owners, workflows, evidence and security controls that product and engineering teams can actually execute.

A board-ready privacy and cyber roadmap

Start fast with DPDP templates, then build the incident-response and vendor-governance work that turns compliance into a practical roadmap you can take to the board.

The people behind the advice

Frequently asked

Honest answers to the questions we get most.

If you process the digital personal data of anyone in India — or offer goods/services to people in India from abroad — yes. There is no employee, revenue or data-volume threshold for baseline applicability (Section 3).

The Rules are notified (13 Nov 2025). Phase 1 procedural provisions are in force now; the Consent Manager framework is expected ~Nov 2026; and the substantive obligations crystallise on 13 May 2027. Most readiness programmes take 9–12 months, so the time to start is now.

Civil penalties only — up to ₹250 Cr for security failures, ₹200 Cr for breach-notification or children's-data failures, ₹150 Cr for SDF lapses, ₹50 Cr for any other breach. Penalties apply per contravention and can cumulate.

No. The Act recognises two grounds — consent (Section 6) and the closed-list "legitimate uses" in Section 7 (e.g. voluntary provision, legal compliance, employment). There is no broad "legitimate interests" basis like the GDPR's.

The Government will notify SDFs based on volume, sensitivity, sectoral exposure and sovereignty factors. Use our SDF Classifier in the Tools section to gauge your likelihood — if you're near the line, plan for the Rule 13 obligations now.

Section 9 requires verifiable parental consent before processing children's data, and prohibits tracking, behavioural monitoring and targeted advertising of children — absolutely, with no consent override. Self-declared age gates are not enough.

Yes by default — Section 16 permits cross-border transfer except to countries the Government may restrict by notification (none as of May 2026). Sectoral rules (RBI, IRDAI) may impose stricter localisation for specific data.

No. The hub is information, written by practitioners and cited to the exact Section, Rule or Schedule. For your specific situation, speak to a lawyer — or to us under a paid engagement.
