About the DPDP Act

India’s Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, 2023 establishes a comprehensive legal framework for processing digital personal data. It defines obligations for Data Fiduciaries and Data Processors and grants rights to Data Principals, including consent management, access, correction, and grievance redressal. The Act emphasizes purpose limitation, data minimization, security safeguards, and timely breach notification to the Data Protection Board of India.

The DPDP Act applies to processing of digital personal data within India and to processing outside India if it is in connection with offering goods or services to Data Principals in India.
