“Between the Lines: Data Processors in a Fiduciary-Focused DPDP Regime” is the first in Redacto’s role-by-role deep dive into India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. This edition focuses on Data Processors, entities that handle personal data on behalf of Data Fiduciaries and examines how the DPDP Act reshapes their responsibilities, risks, and compliance posture.

While the Act places legal obligations squarely on Data Fiduciaries, processors aren’t off the hook. Through detailed contracts, industry standards, and rising client expectations, processors must adhere to rigorous privacy and security practices. This whitepaper explores the quasi-regulatory environment they operate in, the risks they face from business loss to reputational damage and how they can build resilience through best practices, strong DPAs, and a proactive privacy culture.

Whether you're a processor navigating vendor obligations or a fiduciary evaluating third parties, this guide offers actionable insights to help both sides stay aligned, secure, and DPDP-ready.
