White Paper @ Data Protection Framework for India by Committee of Experts



White Paper @ Data Protection Framework for India by Committee of Experts

Govt releases white paper on data protection framework

Public comments are welcome till 31 December on the data protection white paper, which is aimed at securing digital transactions and addressing privacy issues

The white paper also seeks “to designate certain lawful grounds under which data can be processed, even in the absence of consent.” In some situations, seeking consent prior to a data processing activity would not be possible, or it may defeat the purpose of the processing. For instance, where law enforcement officials need to apprehend a criminal, seeking the consent of the criminal prior to processing would defeat the purpose of the investigation, it said.
