DPDP Compliance

Indian Film Fandom is committed to respecting your rights under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP). This page explains how your personal data is handled and how you can exercise your rights under Indian data protection law.

Scope and Applicability

The DPDP applies to the processing of digital personal data of individuals in India. While Indian Film Fandom does not collect or store personal data through user registration or accounts, we may process limited personal data automatically through website analytics, cookies, and server logs for operational and analytical purposes.

Your Rights Under DPDP

Under the DPDP, you have the following rights:

• Right to access your personal data being processed
• Right to correction or completion of inaccurate or incomplete data
• Right to withdrawal of consent, where applicable
• Right to grievance redressal if you believe your data rights have been violated
• Right to nominate another individual to exercise your rights in case of death or incapacity

How We Comply

Indian Film Fandom complies with the DPDP by:

• Minimizing data collection to only what is necessary for website functionality
• Using anonymized analytics tools where possible
• Providing clear notice about data collection through our Privacy Policy
• Ensuring third-party service providers (e.g., analytics platforms) adhere to DPDP standards
• Not selling or sharing personal data for commercial purposes

Data We Process

Under DPDP, the personal data we may process includes:

• IP addresses (anonymized where possible)
• Browser type and device information
• Pages visited and time spent on site
• Cookie identifiers for analytics and preference settings

This data is collected automatically and is not linked to your identity unless you voluntarily provide it via a contact form.

Legal Basis for Processing

We process personal data under the legal basis of legitimate interest for website functionality, performance monitoring, and user experience improvement. No consent is required for this limited processing under Section 10 of the DPDP, as it does not involve sensitive personal data or profiling.

Response Timeframes

Under the DPDP, we are required to respond to your requests within 30 days. In complex cases, we may extend this period by an additional 15 days and will notify you if this occurs.

No Discrimination Policy

We will not deny you access to our content, charge you different rates, or provide a lower quality of service because you exercised your rights under the DPDP.
