Every step of a student's journey collects data — are you telling them?
A parent signs up for a free demo class. You take their child's name, phone number, and WhatsApp contact. You record the class. You send fee payment links. Each step quietly collects information. But did you ever tell the parent what you are doing with it? Under the new DPDPA law, not telling them is a big problem. This applies to every edtech, tuition app, or online coaching business in India.
Say you run an online coaching app. A student shares their Aadhaar for a scholarship form. A parent pays fees and shares their PAN card details. You record doubt sessions on Zoom. You send results on WhatsApp groups. All of this is collecting people's information. The law says you must tell them clearly at each step. Not just once at signup. Every new step needs a fresh, simple explanation. No explanation means you are breaking the law silently.
List every step where you collect student or parent information.
Add a simple one-line notice at each signup, payment, and recording step.
