Data Protection and Privacy Advisory (DPDP Act)
India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act makes privacy an operational and regulatory obligation. We help privacy, data and technology leaders build the programme, records and systems needed to demonstrate compliance.
Coverage includes DPDP Act and Rules readiness, consent management platforms, data discovery and mapping, data principal rights requests, breach notification, processor contracts, cross-border transfers and privacy-enhancing technologies.
Questions we help answer
- What does the DPDP Act require, and where should we begin?
- Which consent management and data discovery tools suit our systems?
- How should rights requests and breach notification be managed at scale?
- How do our obligations change when we process data on behalf of others?
Common questions
Do you give legal opinions on the DPDP Act?
No. We advise on readiness, operating model and technology. For formal legal opinions we work alongside your counsel.
Do you evaluate consent management platforms?
Yes, against verified capability and fit for your channels, languages and existing systems.
Is this only for companies in India?
No. It applies to any organisation processing the digital personal data of people in India, and we also map DPDP obligations against GDPR where clients operate in both.
