OTTs reinforce legal teams as data privacy rules kick in

Large streaming platforms could be classified as significant data fiduciaries, triggering heavier obligations such as impact assessments, audits and appointing data-protection officers under the new regime.

Video-streaming platforms have begun putting in place legal teams in order to comply with the personal data-privacy regime that formally kicked in last week.

More than two years after the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act) was passed by parliament, the ministry of electronics & information technology (MeitY) has notified the rules and established a four-member data-protection board, bringing the law into effect. The board will oversee compliance, hear grievances, and impose penalties when the provisions of the law are breached.
