The draft Digital Personal Data Protection Rules, 2025, announced by the Indian government, aim to safeguard personal data, especially for children, by requiring parental consent for data collection and secure identity verification. The rules also mandate strict data security measures, timely breach notifications, and proper data retention and deletion policies. Additionally, government entities can process personal data for benefits or services, ensuring accountability. Feedback from stakeholders is open until February 18, 2025, to finalize these measures under the broader framework of the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.
