You added a new tool last month. Do you know who can see your data?
Last month you added a new billing app. Or a WhatsApp marketing tool. Or a consultant who needed your customer list. You gave access quickly. That is normal. But here is the problem — you never checked if that tool or person is safe. Your customers' phone numbers, Aadhaar copies, and salary slips may be sitting with someone you barely know.
Think about your business right now. Your accountant has salary slips. Your marketing agency has customer phone numbers. Your HR software has resumes and PAN card copies. Did you check if these people or tools are safe? Under DPDPA, if they leak your customers' information, the blame comes to you. Not them. You. The law says you must check every vendor before giving access. Most small businesses never do this.
Write down every tool and person who can see your customer data.
Ask each vendor: how do you keep our data safe? Get it in writing.
