DPDP Compliance

Begin Your Journey India is committed to respecting your rights under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP). This page explains how we comply with India’s data protection law and how you can exercise your rights.

Scope and Applicability

The DPDP applies to the processing of digital personal data of individuals in India. While Begin Your Journey India does not collect personal data through user registration or accounts, we may process limited personal data through automated means such as website analytics, cookies, and server logs to improve your browsing experience.

Your Rights Under DPDP

Under the DPDP, you have the following rights:

  • Right to access your digital personal data we hold
  • Right to correction of inaccurate or incomplete data
  • Right to erasure of your data
  • Right to grievance redressal if you believe your rights have been violated

How We Comply

We do not store personal data in identifiable databases. Any data collected (e.g., IP addresses, cookie identifiers) is used solely for analytical purposes and is either anonymized or deleted after 12 months. We do not share personal data with third parties for commercial purposes. We maintain reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect data against unauthorized access or loss.

Data We Process

The only personal data we may process includes:

  • IP addresses (anonymized after processing)
  • Browser type and device information via analytics tools
  • Cookie identifiers for site functionality and performance

This data is collected automatically and is not linked to your identity.

Legal Basis for Processing

Our processing is based on legitimate interest under Section 7 of the DPDP, to ensure the proper functioning of our website, improve user experience, and analyze traffic patterns for content optimization. We do not rely on consent for this limited processing.

  1. Your full name

  3. A clear description of your request (e.g., access, correction, deletion)

Response Timeframes

We will respond to your request within 30 days of receipt, as required by the DPDP. If the request is complex, we may extend this period by an additional 15 days and will notify you of the delay.

No Discrimination Policy

You will not be denied services, charged different prices, or receive a lower quality of service for exercising your rights under the DPDP.
