Data Protection & Technology Law
Data is now a regulated asset. At Oberoi & Partners, we advise startups, technology companies, digital platforms, media businesses, and consumer brands on data protection compliance, privacy governance, and technology-related legal risk in India and across international markets.
Our data protection and technology law practice focuses on helping businesses build compliant systems without disrupting growth. We advise on India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act), GDPR-aligned compliance for global operations, and the legal frameworks governing data-driven products, SaaS platforms, and digital services.
We work closely with founders, product teams, and compliance heads to ensure that privacy obligations are embedded into contracts, internal processes, and customer-facing documentation—rather than treated as a last-minute checkbox. Our advice is practical, implementation-focused, and aligned with how technology businesses actually operate.
