Data Breach Notification
The PDPB mandates organizations to report data breaches to the appropriate authorities and affected individuals within a specified timeframe and recommends actions.
Data Localization
The PDPB may require categories of personal data to be stored and processed only within India as a localization requirement to protect the privacy of Indian citizens' data.
Rights of Individuals
PDPB granted individuals rights, such as the right to access their personal data, correct inaccuracies, delete data, data portability, and object to data processing.
