Why this mattersVerification teams need practical workflows, but legal obligations should be checked against current official sources and counsel before launch.
Verification context
DPDP compliance starts before the first document upload. The requester must know why a verification is needed, the person being checked must understand that purpose, and the system must keep a record of consent.
For an SMB, the safest operating model is simple: do not collect raw Aadhaar, PAN, OTPs, or proofs in chat. Use a hosted verification flow, store the receipt, and give the user a way to access, correct, erase, nominate, or grieve.
Operating note
PRAMAAN treats consent, DSR, breach disclosure, DPO routing, and retention as product surfaces, not policy PDFs that sit outside the workflow.
Key takeaways
- Write the purpose before collecting data.
- Keep DSR and grievance routes public.
- Review retention before expanding checks.
