The Digital Personal Data Protection Act of 2023 is India's first comprehensive data protection law, balancing individual privacy rights with the needs of governments and businesses. It introduces new terminology, such as 'data fiduciaries,' and stems from a 2017 Supreme Court ruling on privacy. Key provisions include consent rules, individual rights, and data breach protocols, with a focus on digital personal data and protections for children.
