      The Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDPA) 2023, enforced through the 2025 Rules, is transforming how Media and OTT platforms manage personal data in India. These platforms, which depend on personalisation, targeted advertising, and recommendation engines, now face strict mandates on data minimisation, consent management, children’s data protection, cross-border transfers, and breach response.

      Key highlights of the report

      • Data governance

        Limit data collection to essentials like streaming quality and personalisation

      • Consent management

        Explicit, revocable consent for personalized ads and recommendations; user dashboards for data access and deletion

      • Children’s data

        Verified parental consent and strong age-gating for minors

      • Cross-border transfers

        Data storage only in approved jurisdictions, impacting global delivery networks

      • Security & breach response

        Encryption, access controls, and rapid incident handling to protect sensitive viewer data
