An Easy Guide to DPDP Compliance

Frequently Asked Questions

It’s the legal framework under India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 that defines how businesses must collect, store, and protect personal data like names, emails, Aadhaar, and financial info. Being compliant means following proper consent, privacy, and security practices — protecting your company from penalties up to ₹250 crore and earning customer trust.

Any business — small or large — that collects or processes customer or employee data digitally, including startups, law firms, e-commerce, SaaS platforms, fintechs, HR portals, and professional services. If you have forms, apps, chats, or CRMs — you need compliance.

We handle end-to-end compliance setup:
✅ Data audit & mapping
✅ Privacy & consent policy drafting
✅ Consent management tools
✅ Data retention & deletion protocols
✅ Employee SOPs & vendor agreements
✅ Breach reporting templates
✅ DPO / Grievance officer guidance
✅ Ongoing compliance audits
Everything — from your website to backend — is made DPDP-ready.

For most startups and MSMEs, compliance is achieved within 10–15 working days. Larger enterprises or data-heavy companies may take 3–6 weeks for full audit, policies, and training rollout.

Non-compliance can cost up to ₹250 crore per violation, plus business suspension,reputational loss, and data-blocking orders. The bigger penalty is lost trust — soon, clients may only work with compliant partners.
