Why DPDP Act Is Going To Change Personal Info Forever

The DPDP Act 2023 represents a holistic approach to data protection, outlining stringent measures to ensure the privacy and security of individuals’ personal information.

One of the fundamental principles of the DPDP Act is the emphasis on obtaining explicit consent for the collection and processing of PII.

The act urges organisations to collect only the necessary information for specific, predefined, and legitimate business purposes. 

DPDP Act includes Right to Data Portability, empowering individuals to seamlessly transfer their data between service providers

The DPDP Act introduces Data Localisation Requirements, necessitating certain categories of data to be exclusively processed within the country. 

Organisations engaging in high-risk data processing activities are obligated to conduct a Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA).
