APAC: India’s DPDP Act & Localization Implications
Free to Attend | Live GC360 Virtual Roundtable
About the Session
With the implementation of India’s Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, organizations across APAC are reassessing their data governance, cross-border flows, and localization strategies. The DPDP Act introduces new compliance obligations, stricter enforcement penalties, and evolving consent requirements — making preparedness essential for all companies processing personal data related to India.
This roundtable brings together legal, privacy, compliance, and technology leaders to explore:
-
Key operational requirements under the DPDP Act
-
Implications for data localization, cross-border transfers, and global data flows
-
Consent, grievance redressal, and data principal rights
-
How APAC organizations are adapting existing GDPR and PDP frameworks
All participants will receive the full session recording and a curated post-event toolkit via GC360Flix.
