DPDP Compliance
Advocate for Justice is committed to respecting the rights of individuals under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP). This page explains how we comply with India’s data protection law and how you can exercise your rights.
Scope and Applicability
The DPDP applies to the processing of digital personal data of individuals in India. While Advocate for Justice does not collect personal data through user registration or accounts, we may process limited personal data automatically, such as IP addresses, browser information, and usage patterns via analytics tools and cookies for site functionality and improvement.
Your Rights Under DPDP
Under the DPDP, you have the following rights:
- Right to access your digital personal data processed by us
- Right to correction of inaccurate or incomplete data
- Right to erasure of your data
- Right to grievance redressal if you believe your rights have been violated
Note: These rights apply only to data that can be reasonably linked to you.
How We Comply
Advocate for Justice complies with DPDP by:
- Minimizing data collection to what is strictly necessary
- Not storing personal data longer than required
- Using only secure and compliant third-party tools for analytics
- Providing clear information about data processing
- Responding to data rights requests within the legally mandated timeframe
Data We Process
We may automatically collect the following types of data:
- IP address
- Browser type and version
- Pages visited and time spent on site
- Cookie identifiers (for functionality and analytics)
This data is not stored in a way that directly identifies individuals unless voluntarily provided via contact forms.
Legal Basis for Processing
Our processing of personal data is based on legitimate interest — specifically, to ensure the website functions properly, improve user experience, and analyze traffic for content optimization. We do not process sensitive personal data or data of children.

Response Timeframes
We will respond to your request within 30 days of receipt, as required by the DPDP. If additional time is needed, we will notify you with reasons for the delay.
No Discrimination Policy
Exercising your rights under the DPDP will not result in any denial of service, discrimination, or adverse consequences. You are free to request access, correction, or deletion without penalty.
