For AI that touches personal data in India, DPDP-aware design isn’t optional. dgm builds the technical controls that make compliance practical. (dgm implements osFoundry, a separate company’s platform — dgm is an independent integration partner, not osFoundry, and not a law firm.)

What DPDP-aware implementation means

Implementing AI designed around the DPDP Act’s principles — lawful basis and consent, purpose limitation, data minimisation, security, and data-principal rights — with controlled, auditable handling.

How we build it in

  • Map the personal and sensitive data involved;
  • Self-hostable deployment — data stays in your environment, not uncontrolled tools (see data residency);
  • Access controls — AI surfaces only permitted data;
  • Audit trails — handling is traceable (see governance).

Built in from the start — far easier than retrofitting (see the data-protection checklist).

dgm builds the technical controls that support compliance, but doesn’t provide legal advice — your obligations (including whether you’re a Significant Data Fiduciary with additional duties) rest with qualified counsel. We make compliance practical; you and your advisors determine the requirements.

Pricing

$399 assessment, $3,999/month implementation, no per-seat fees (INR approximate; 18% GST domestic). DPDP-aware design and self-hosting are part of how we implement, not a premium.
