Three reasons the practice is different.

32 DPDP modules in every engagement

Not 5. Not 10. Thirty-two — every DPDP module the Act needs, from consent to Section 8(5) Safeguards, Section 14 Nomination, 4th-party exposure, sampling audits, and AI purpose alignment.

Reject-All actually works

Our Deep Scan v2 launches a real browser and verifies that “Reject All” on your cookie banner actually stops trackers. DPDP Section 6 evidence, not just checkbox theatre.

Branded DSR portal on your domain

Custom Subdomain DSR: point privacy.yourcompany.com at dcomply, keep your customers on your brand throughout the DPDP journey. Included from Pro.

10 DPDP-native upgrades. Shipped.

Every gap the specialists advertise — closed. Every one wired into the system, every one reachable from the sidebar, every one live on app.dcomply.in.

Consent & notices — richer, deeper, universal

All 22 Indian languages

Notices in every one of the Eighth Schedule languages — Hindi, Tamil, Bengali, Dogri, Santali, Manipuri, Kashmiri, all 22. Native scripts, not transliteration.

2-D Consent Matrix

Every purpose classified on two axes — Use type (legitimate use vs business case) × Frequency (one-time vs recurring). Legal-review ready.

No-code Hosted Link

Share consent forms via WhatsApp, SMS, email, PDF footer, print QR — zero code integration. One URL, mobile-first, all 22 languages supported.

1-line script embed

Paste one <script> tag on any page — WordPress, Shopify, custom sites, whatever. Auto-updates when we ship changes; no re-deploy on your side.

Data-principal rights — first-class Section 14 Nomination

Section 14 Nomination — first-class

Nominee registration + admin approve/reject + audit-trail evidence. A DPDP-only right that GDPR platforms don’t handle. Now surfaced on its own portal card, not buried under DSR types.

4-card Rights Channels row

Data Principal Portal now shows DSR + Nomination + Withdrawal + Grievance as four equal-weight channels — one operator dashboard, four DPDP-native SLAs.

Governance & audit — regulator-ready evidence

Section 8(5) Safeguards dashboard

Single evidence surface bundling access control + encryption inventory + vuln posture + log retention + breach history. Traffic-light score. Show it to the Data Protection Board on one screen.

4th-Party Exposure

Walks the processor chain end-to-end — who are your vendors’ vendors? Tree view, unique-countries-in-chain counter, DPDP Sec 8(2) evidence trail. What enterprise procurement asks first.

Sampling audit engine

Cochran-based sample sizing with finite-population correction — random, stratified, or systematic. Big-4 auditor methodology, reproducible draws, methodology footer in the CSV.

AI-assisted intelligence — closing the last-mile loop

Purpose Alignment analyser

Maps every discovered PII field to a declared consent purpose or published notice. Surfaces orphan data (collected with no stated purpose) and stale purposes (declared but nothing maps to them). Alignment score 0–100.

Code-repo PII scanner

Scans your source (JS/TS/PHP/Python/Java/HTML) for personal-data collection points — form fields, ORM writes, analytics identifies, request-body accesses. 14 labels × ~25 rules, deterministic, source never leaves your tenant.

Every capability above is included in all four service shapes — no tier gates, no procurement games.

Platform go-live in three weeks.

Not a sales promise — this is the concrete week-by-week timeline the practice follows inside every Implementation engagement. Platform setup + first evidence chain — consent widget deployed, DSR portal live, policies generated, Sec 8(5) Safeguards populated. Ongoing DPDP maturity (staff training, quarterly audits, RoPA depth) is continuous work after Day 21.

“Why not just build this in-house?”

Fair question. Here’s what “building it in-house” actually costs when you add up engineering hours, legal review, and the ongoing update burden as DPDP Rules keep evolving.

Build it in-house

  • 2 senior engineers × 6 months₹ 24–36L
  • Legal review by a privacy law firm₹ 4–8L
  • Cloud infra + storage + sending domains₹ 1–2L/yr
  • Ongoing updates as DPDP Rules evolve1 FTE/qtr
  • You still don’t have RBI / SEBI / CERT-In / POSHMissing
Year-one cost, DPDP only
₹ 30–45 lakh
Plus every future regulation from scratch.

The hidden cost of building in-house

DPDP Rules 2025 dropped in Nov 2025. Section 8(5) sub-rules are still being clarified. Every clarification means your in-house code needs a re-review. The practitioner absorbs those updates and ships them inside your retainer — you never pay again to keep up with the law.
