Privacy, Data Protection
and Technology Law
Data flows within organisations are often unstructured, creating exposure under evolving regulatory frameworks. Policies may exist but lack enforceability. Vidyam Legal evaluates data handling practices, contractual safeguards, and governance systems, ensuring that digital operations remain structured and legally defensible.
IT law, technology law, cyber law, and DPDP compliance form a core part of our practice, where we handle end-to-end data privacy and protection compliance, enabling businesses to operate within the framework of the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, the Information Technology Act, 2000, SPDI Rules, 2011, and GDPR. With increasing regulatory scrutiny and exposure to penalties, we assess data flows across personal, sensitive, and financial data, identify compliance gaps and risk exposure, and implement practical, enforceable frameworks aligned with Indian law and global standards.
We structure and execute data governance systems, including drafting and review of privacy policies, consent and cookie frameworks, data handling protocols, cross-border transfer mechanisms, consent notices, incident response plans, Data Processing Agreements, Data Sharing Agreements, and NDAs with employees, vendors, and clients. We address operational risks such as data breaches, unauthorized access, vendor exposure, and internal misuse, while implementing employee policies and vendor compliance structures to ensure lawful processing, accountability, and penalty-ready compliance.
We also advise on legal and technical aspects of technology transactions, including technology transfer, information security, software licensing, outsourcing, click-wrap arrangements, branding, and white-labelling structures. Our practice extends to digital risks and disputes, including internet fraud, gaming and payment issues, data and image theft, piracy, privacy breaches, and online harassment, ensuring enforcement, remedies, and compensation.
