Everything you learned this week, in one simple read.
A small school in Pune kept student Aadhaar numbers in a WhatsApp group. No password. No rules. One complaint could bring a fine of ₹250 crore. That school owner had no idea this law applied to them. If your business collects phone numbers, resumes, or salary details — this law is for you. Today we recap everything.
Think about your daily work. You collect customer phone numbers on WhatsApp. You store staff salary slips on Google Drive. You keep resumes of job applicants in a folder. All of this is covered under DPDPA. You must tell people why you are collecting their information. You must keep it safe. You must delete it when you no longer need it. Not doing this is not an option anymore.
Write a short note to your team about why DPDPA matters now.
