DPDP

DPDP Act Compliance

Simplify Compliance with India's Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act

The Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act has changed how organisations collect, process, store, and protect personal data.


Whether you're a startup, enterprise, or global business serving customers in India, compliance is no longer optional.

At SecComply, we help you understand your obligations, identify compliance gaps, implement the right controls, and build a privacy programme that keeps your business compliant and customer data protected.


Why it matters

Why DPDP Compliance Matters

Every organisation handling personal data has a responsibility to protect it.

The DPDP Act introduces clear requirements around consent, data processing, individual rights, breach reporting, and governance. Failing to meet these obligations can lead to financial penalties, regulatory scrutiny, and loss of customer trust.

Rather than treating DPDP as a one-time compliance project, we help you build privacy practices that become part of your day-to-day operations.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

The DPDP Act applies to all organizations that process digital personal data within India, or process data of Indian residents.
The DPDP Act provides for significant financial penalties, with amounts varying based on the nature and severity of the violation.
Certain categories of Data Fiduciaries classified as Significant Data Fiduciaries are required to appoint a DPO.
Considerably less than starting from nothing — the data inventory, retention positions and breach process carry over. The real differences are in consent, the Data Principal rights model, and the Significant Data Fiduciary obligations, which have no direct GDPR equivalent. We scope against what you already have rather than rerunning the whole exercise.
