Disclaimer
What this website is, what it is not, and why you should check the official sources.
Last reviewed October 202601Independent and unofficial
DPDP Compliance is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated on behalf of the Government of India, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology, the Data Protection Board of India or any other government authority. We do not claim any official or regulatory status, and nothing on this site is an official communication.
02Not legal advice
The content is for general education about India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and the DPDP Rules, 2025. It is not legal, financial or professional advice, and reading it does not create a lawyer–client or any other advisory relationship. How the law applies depends on the facts of each case. Please take advice from a qualified lawyer before acting on anything here.
03Check the official sources
Laws, rules, notifications and guidance can change, and our summaries, explanations and checklists can contain errors or become out of date. Where this site and an official text differ, the official text prevails. The official gazette notifications are available here: DPDP Act, 2023 and DPDP Rules, 2025. Each page shows when it was last reviewed; see the Editorial Policy for how content is prepared and corrected.
04No compliance guarantee or certification
Following a checklist, template, guide or tool on this site does not make any organisation compliant with the DPDP Act, and we do not certify, approve or audit anyone's compliance. Compliance is the responsibility of the organisation concerned.
05Website Risk Scanner results
The scanner reports potential risks from signals visible on a website. A report is not a legal opinion, an audit or a finding that a site does or does not comply with the law. A low indicator does not mean a site is compliant, and a high one does not mean it breaks the law. Findings can be incomplete or wrong, for example when a page could not be loaded. See the limits of the scanner for what it cannot see.
06No warranty and limited liability
The site and its tools are provided “as is”, without warranties of any kind, to the extent the law allows. DPDP Compliance is not liable for decisions taken, or loss suffered, in reliance on the content. The full position is in the Terms of Use.
07External links and third parties
Links to other websites are provided for convenience. We do not control them and are not responsible for their content. Mention of any organisation, product or service is not an endorsement.
08Corrections
If you find an error or an out-of-date statement, please tell us through the contact page. For privacy requests, see Grievance Redressal.
