🚨 DPDP Rules 2025: Compliance Deadline 42 weeks awayRead handbook →

Understanding the DPDP Act basics

Where to read about the law itself before diving into product workflows.

This documentation focuses on how to use DPDP Guard, not on explaining India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 line by line — for that, use the dedicated legal resources:

  • DPDP Rules Handbook — an interactive, section-by-section guide to the Act and 2025 Rules, with the specific DPDP Guard feature that satisfies each requirement.
  • Audit Checklist — a step-by-step compliance readiness guide.
  • Mapping Framework — a framework for documenting your organization’s data flows.

Each product doc in this section links back to the relevant Act section where it matters (e.g. §11/§12 for rights requests, §6 for notices, §9 for children’s data) — but the handbook above is the canonical reference for the law itself.
