DPDP Act Readiness Review

15 working days

One round, included

Ownership

Yours from day one

Overview

What this engagement is

The Digital Personal Data Protection Act changes what Indian businesses must do with personal data, and most product teams have not mapped where that data actually sits. We inventory it: the database, the analytics tool, the support inbox, the marketing platform, the spreadsheet on someone's laptop. Then we assess your consent flows, retention practice and processor contracts against the Act, and produce a remediation plan with effort estimates. This is engineering-led rather than legal advice, and we say plainly where you need a lawyer instead.

Deliverables

What lands in your repositories

7 items
  • Personal data inventory across systems, vendors and storage locations
  • Data flow maps showing collection, processing, sharing and deletion
  • Gap assessment against DPDP Act obligations with severity ratings
  • Consent notice and consent capture review with rewritten wording
  • Retention schedule proposal by data category
  • Data principal rights process covering access, correction and erasure
  • Breach notification procedure and remediation plan with effort estimates

Outcomes

What changes once it ships

You know where personal data lives, often for the first time

Consent and retention practice defensible rather than assumed

A prioritised plan instead of a vague sense of exposure

Process

How the 4 stages run

  1. 01

    Discover

    systems interviewed and personal data located, including shadow copies

  2. 02

    Map

    flows documented from collection through to deletion

  3. 03

    Assess

    practice compared against the Act clause by clause

  4. 04

    Plan

    gaps prioritised with owners, effort and a suggested sequence

Booked most often by

  • Indian companies holding customer personal data at any scale
  • Products with users in India expanding their data collection
  • Teams whose privacy policy was copied from another website years ago

What we need from you

  • Access to system owners for short interviews
  • Your current privacy policy, vendor list and consent screens
  • Someone senior enough to own the remediation plan afterwards

These are collected in the technical brief that opens in your dashboard the moment payment clears. The clock starts when they arrive, not before.

Answers

Questions this engagement raises

No. It is a technical and process readiness review. We work alongside your legal counsel and flag anything needing their judgement.

The inventory and flow maps serve both. A full GDPR assessment adds scope and we will quote it.

Yes. Obligations scale with volume and sensitivity, but they start from the first data principal.

This is engineering work, not a physical product — nothing ships and there is no stock to run out of. Delivery is to the working days stated above, into systems you control, and the refund terms set out what happens if we miss the date.
