India DPDPA Compliance Services
In today’s data-driven world, compliance with data protection laws is essential for businesses. With the enactment of the Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDPA), 2023, companies operating in India must ensure full compliance to avoid severe penalties. The DPDPA sets a robust legal framework for how personal data should be collected, processed, and stored.
