The detail
The DPDP Readiness Scan is for any business that collects personal data and wants to know where it stands under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. Customer details usually sit in forms, spreadsheets, a CRM and a few tools nobody remembers signing up for. You walk away with a map of that data, a review of your consent and notices, and a short written report with the top fixes.
What does TechSum do, and what does counsel do?
We implement. Partner counsel advises on legal interpretation. The scan looks at what your websites, apps and systems actually do with personal data, and what we would change on the technical side. If the findings raise a question about what the Act requires of you, we bring in counsel for that part.
What does the DPDP Readiness Scan look at?
- Personal data. What you collect, through which forms and systems, where it is stored and who can see it.
- Notices and consent. Whether your privacy notice is clear and whether consent is asked for properly, including cookies and trackers.
- Rights requests. Whether someone could ask to see, correct or erase their data, and whether you could respond.
- Suppliers. Which outside tools and data processors (companies that handle data on your behalf) receive personal data from you.
- Breach readiness. Whether you would know quickly if personal data were lost or stolen, and who would act.
How does the scan run?
We ask for the websites and systems in scope and a conversation with whoever knows how data moves in the business. We review, map and test what we can see, and write it up. The price is fixed and agreed before we begin.
What do you walk away with?
A short written report. It maps your personal data, notes what is already in good shape, lists what needs fixing and puts the fixes in priority order, with plain explanations a non-technical owner can follow.
What happens after the scan?
The scan leads into Trust, Security & Compliance, starting with DPDP Act compliance: consent and notice systems, rights workflows, retention and deletion, and breach readiness. If you want ongoing reviews afterwards, a Care Retainer or Managed Services can carry that.
Is this right for you?
It suits businesses at the start of the question, before they have a plan. If you only want a general site review, the Digital Health Check covers DPDP basics alongside speed, security and SEO. Ready for a first look? Start with the scan.
FAQ
Questions we get asked
What is the DPDP Act?
It is the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, India's law on how personal data is collected, used and protected. It affects most businesses that hold customer, user or employee data.
Is the scan legal advice?
No. We look at how your systems actually handle personal data and tell you what we would change. Partner counsel advises on legal interpretation and on what the Act requires of your business.
Is the scan a certificate or an audit?
No. It is a first look and a plan. It tells you where you stand and what to fix first, so the full readiness work can be scoped properly.
Who should do this?
Any business with a website, an app, a CRM or customer records. If you collect names, phone numbers or emails, personal data is already in your systems.
