Economic Times

3m
India's new Digital Personal Data Protection Act mandates children under 18 require parental consent for social media access. Draft rules categorize data fiduciaries into e-commerce, gaming, and social media, requiring inactive user data deletion after three years. In case of breaches, fiduciaries must notify both the Data Protection Board and affected users within 72 hours. The rules encourage flexibility in obtaining parental consent and propose potential data localization requirements, with stakeholder feedback invited until February 18.
