Every email, timesheet, and WhatsApp message in your office carries someone's data.
Think about yesterday. You sent a resume to a client. Your team updated a project tracker. Someone shared a salary slip on WhatsApp. All of this moved people's private information. In a consultancy or BPO, this happens 50 times a day. Most owners do not even notice. But the new data law — DPDPA — is watching every single step.
Your business runs on people. And people's information travels with every task. When your HR team emails a resume, that is data moving. When your ops team shares a project tracker with a client, that is data moving. When your support staff logs a complaint with a customer's phone number, that is data moving. Under DPDPA, you must know where this information goes. You must protect it. You must not share it without a reason.
List every place your team shares people's information — email, WhatsApp, trackers.
Tell your HR and ops team: do not forward resumes or salary slips without permission.
