Privacy made practicalfor Indian businesses
Understand whether DPDPA applies to you, how exposed your current practices are, and exactly what to do next — in plain English, no legal degree required.
DPDPA is India's framework for handling digital personal data, and the DPDP Rules, 2025 have now been notified. For Indian businesses, the real work is operational: fix your notices, consent flows, rights handling, retention logic, and vendor controls. SaralPrivacy helps you understand what matters, assess your risk, and prioritise the next 30 to 90 days.
Educational, not alarmist
We explain what DPDPA actually requires in language that founders and operations teams can act on — not fear-mongering.
Practical and actionable
Every briefing ends with a checklist. Every assessment ends with a roadmap. We focus on what to do, not just what the law says.

Frequently asked questions
Quick answers to the questions Indian business owners ask most about DPDPA.
The Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 is India's first comprehensive data protection legislation. It governs how personal data of Indian citizens can be collected, stored, processed, and used by businesses and organisations. The Act was passed by Parliament in August 2023. The DPDP Rules, 2025 have been notified, with phased commencement, making this implementation time for businesses.
