DPDP for Fintech
Financial data flows through fiduciaries, processors and consent managers, under sector regulators whose requirements continue alongside the DPDP framework.
What does the DPDP framework mean for Fintech?
Financial data moves through fiduciaries, processors and Consent Managers at once, under sector regulators whose requirements continue alongside. Map the Consent Manager interactions first, then security and audit posture, then retention against financial record laws, which is where the hardest conflicts appear. Parental consent applies wherever minors hold products.
