Every step of your product collects data — are you telling users?

You built a software product. Users sign up, raise support tickets, attend demos. At every step, you collect their name, phone number, email, or company details. But did you ever tell them clearly — what you are collecting and why? Under India's new data law, not telling users is a serious problem. This is not just about a privacy policy page. It is about every single step in your product.
Say you run a small SaaS tool for shops. A new user signs up with their phone number. Then they raise a support ticket with their GST number. Then they update their contact details. Each of these steps collects people's information. At each step, your product must tell the user what you are collecting and why. If you only have one privacy policy link at the bottom of your website, that is not enough. You must show the notice where the data is actually collected.
