Your gym's old records could get you in trouble under the new law.
Think about this. A member left your gym two years ago. But their phone number, Aadhaar copy, and trainer notes are still sitting in your file or app. Under India's new data law, this is not allowed. You must delete people's information once they stop using your service. If you don't, your business can face serious trouble. Does this apply to you? Yes — if you run a gym, yoga studio, or wellness centre.
Say a member stopped coming to your gym in 2024. Their phone number, diet plan, and Aadhaar copy are still saved on your computer. That is a problem now. You must delete their information. Same for old booking records on your app. Also, if someone's information ever leaks — say a WhatsApp group message goes wrong — you need one person in your team whose job is to handle it fast. Decide that person today. Write their name down.
