What DPDP means for your telemetry

If you're shipping events to an analytics vendor, DPDP treats that vendor as your data processor. Three things you need in place before your compliance team asks:

  1. Data residency in India. Non-negotiable for most Indian streaming services.
  2. Consent gating. No analytics fire before the user accepts.
  3. Erasure API. User requests deletion, vendor honours it in 72h.
