DPDPA compliance for Indian business

India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDPA) changes how every business must handle personal data. Invitty gets you compliant — data mapping, consent, data-principal rights, security safeguards and policies — practically, for businesses across Chennai and India.

In short: Invitty helps Indian businesses comply with the DPDPA — mapping the personal data you hold, fixing the legal basis and consent for it, enabling data-principal rights, and putting the security safeguards and policies the law requires in place.

What the DPDPA means for you

The DPDPA applies to virtually any business that handles the personal data of individuals in India. It requires you to process data lawfully and for clear purposes, obtain valid consent (or rely on a permitted ground), honour individuals' rights over their data, protect it with reasonable security safeguards, and report breaches.

Compliance starts with knowing what personal data you actually hold and why — most businesses underestimate this. We map it, fix the gaps, and give you the policies, notices and processes the Act expects, sized to your organisation.

How we get you DPDPA-ready

  • Data mapping — what personal data you hold, where and why
  • Lawful basis and consent review, with compliant notices
  • Data-principal rights process (access, correction, erasure)
  • Reasonable security safeguards aligned to the Act
  • Breach-response and notification procedures
  • Privacy policy, internal policies and staff guidance

Who the DPDPA affects

Almost every business handling customer, employee or user data in India — from SMBs to enterprises. We help organisations across Chennai, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh and nationwide get ready.

DPDPA — frequently asked questions

The Digital Personal Data Protection Act is India's data-privacy law. It applies to businesses that handle the personal data of individuals in India, setting rules for consent, purpose, security and individuals' rights over their data.

Map the personal data you hold, establish a lawful basis and clear consent, give people a way to exercise their rights, protect data with reasonable safeguards, and have breach-response procedures. We guide you through each step.

The Act provides for significant financial penalties for non-compliance and breaches. Beyond penalties, mishandling data damages customer trust — so getting ready is both a legal and commercial priority.

They share principles like consent and data-subject rights, but the DPDPA is India-specific with its own definitions, grounds for processing and penalty regime. If you already follow GDPR you have a head start, but it's not automatic compliance.
