Data Fiduciary Consent: A Short Guide to India’s DPDP Framework

Data Fiduciary Consent: A Short Guide to India’s DPDP Framework Under India’s DPDP framework, a Data Fiduciary determines how and why personal data is processed. When consent is required, individuals should receive clear information about the purpose of processing before making their choice. Effective consent management should also allow applicable preferences to be changed or withdrawn. Consent is not simply a website checkbox. Organizations should maintain appropriate records and ensure that websites, applications, APIs, and third-party services follow the user’s current preference. A consent management platform can help organize these privacy controls. Regular reviews are important because new vendors, tracking technologies, and dataprocessing activities can change how consent needs to be managed.
