The Context: Why Now

The New Era of Privacy: DPDP Act, 2023 New Roles: 
✅Your business is a Data Fiduciary;
the individual is the Data Principal. 
✅The Mandate: You must prove clear,
verifiable consent for every piece of data you hold. 
✅The Stakes: Non-compliance carries
penalties up to ₹250 Crores. 
✅The Challenge: Is your current
software built to handle these legal obligations?

Core Responsibilities as a Data Fiduciary

Compliance is not just a legal document - it is a technical implementation - Under the DPDP Act:
✅Consent Architecture: You must obtain free, specific, informed, and unconditional consent.
✅Can your current UI prove exactly when and how a user
agreed?
✅Data Mapping & Inventory: You cannot protect what you cannot see. You must map exactly where personal data flows—from collection forms to third-party vendors (Processors).
✅Right to Erasure: When a customer asks to be "forgotten," can your database automatically purge their records across all backups and vendor systems?
✅Grievance Redressal: You are required to have a Data Protection Officer (DPO) or a grievance mechanism to respond to privacy queries.
