Privacy Compliance
That Survives Scrutiny.

India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 (DPDPA) is now in force. Data centers that process, store, or transit personal data have specific obligations — and the consequences of non-compliance include regulatory penalties, reputational damage, and civil liability.

InfraVeritas Data Privacy Certification independently verifies your privacy posture — from basic policy documentation through to continuous automated compliance — and produces evidence that stands up in regulatory inquiries, investor due diligence, and legal proceedings.
