DPDP Act 2023 compliance in India in 2026 requires a personal-data inventory and RoPA, valid consent management, clear privacy notices, Data Principal rights (DSAR) handling, DPIAs for high-risk processing, reasonable security safeguards, breach response readiness, a Data Protection Officer where required, and independent assessment. Aanetic delivers this end to end.
Map your data and build a RoPA
Discover and classify the personal data you hold, then document processing activities — purposes, data, recipients, retention and transfers — in a Record of Processing Activities.
Fix consent, notice and rights
Implement valid, purpose-wise consent with clear notices and a withdrawal mechanism, and stand up Data Principal rights (access, correction, erasure, nomination).
Secure, assess and prepare for breaches
Apply reasonable security safeguards, run DPIAs for high-risk processing, and build a tested breach response plan for Data Protection Board notification.
Govern and verify
Appoint a Data Protection Officer if you're a Significant Data Fiduciary, and verify everything with an independent DPDP assessment.
FAQ
Begin with a gap assessment and data discovery to understand your obligations and exposure, then prioritise consent, RoPA and Data Principal rights.
