DPDP Compliance: Who Is Actually Responsible?

IT, Legal, HR, Sales, Operations, the DPO — or the Board? A practical, role-based webinar that shows exactly where DPDP accountability sits, and what every department is expected to do.

Why This Matters

Why Should You Attend?

DPDP compliance is not merely about creating a privacy policy, adding a consent checkbox or appointing a DPO. Real compliance begins when every department understands what it must own — including:

What personal data it handles
Why that data is being processed
Who owns the activity
What controls must be implemented
Who will answer if something goes wrong

What this webinar gives you

This webinar converts complex DPDP requirements into simple departmental responsibilities, practical examples and relatable business use cases — so every function walks away knowing exactly what it owns.

DPDP is everyone's responsibility — but it must never become nobody's accountability.

Full Agenda

Everything We Will Cover

Nine parts, three hours, one clear picture of who owns what.

PART 01

Who Is Ultimately Accountable?

Understand whether accountability rests with the organisation, Board, CEO, DPO, department head, employee or vendor.

PART 02

Accountability vs. Responsibility

Learn the important difference between the person who answers for the outcome and the teams responsible for performing compliance activities.

PART 03

The DPDP Accountability Pyramid

Understand how accountability and responsibility flow from the Board and senior management to the DPO, department heads, process owners and employees.

PART 04

Department-Wise Responsibilities

Discover the specific DPDP roles of IT, Information Security, Legal, HR, Sales, Marketing, Operations, Finance, Procurement and senior management.

PART 05

Data Fiduciary, Data Processor and DPO

Understand these important DPDP roles through simple organisational examples — without complicated legal language.

PART 06

Who Is Responsible When a Vendor Causes a Breach?

Learn whether an organisation can transfer responsibility to its cloud provider, payroll vendor, marketing agency or another Data Processor.

PART 07

One Complete Business Use Case

Follow a personal data breach from discovery to containment, assessment, notification and management reporting — and understand which department performs each activity.

PART 08

Who Can Be Penalised?

Understand who may face regulatory action when an organisation fails to protect personal data, report a breach or fulfil its DPDP obligations.

PART 09

A Practical Responsibility Model

Learn the five questions every department must answer and take away a simple model for assigning business, system, control, risk and executive ownership.

Grounded In Reality

Real Questions. Practical Answers.

The webinar addresses practical situations such as:

HR retaining candidates' résumés indefinitely
Sales using a purchased lead database
Marketing contacting customers after consent withdrawal
Personal data remaining in multiple systems after deletion
A payroll or marketing vendor suffering a data breach
Employees storing customer information on personal devices
Management ignoring an identified privacy risk
A customer or employee requesting access, correction or erasure

This is not a session limited to legal theory. It is designed to help you understand how DPDP works inside a real organisation.
