A timely and necessary intervention by NHRC. In today’s digital age, safeguarding children’s data is not optional—it’s a fundamental responsibility. Platforms must move beyond intent and ensure full compliance with the DPDP Act, especially on data tracking, security, and grievance redressal. Accountability and transparency are key to building a safe digital ecosystem for our future generations.
