A Privacy Policy Agreement is a mandatory legal document for organizations operating in India that collect, process, or store personal data. This document is required under the Information Technology Act, 2000 and the Information Technology Rules, 2011, which mandate transparency in data handling practices. It serves as a comprehensive statement of an organization's data protection practices, detailing how personal information is collected, used, stored, and protected. The policy must address specific requirements under Indian law, including provisions for sensitive personal data, consent mechanisms, and grievance handling procedures. Organizations must ensure their Privacy Policy Agreement is easily accessible to users, written in clear language, and regularly updated to reflect changes in data practices or regulatory requirements.
