Website Consent Under the DPDP Act (India)
Website consent must be unambiguous, purpose-specific, and withdrawable as easily as it was given—no pre-ticked boxes or dark patterns.
Under DPDP Section 6, website consent must be free, specific, informed, and unambiguous. A cookie banner alone is insufficient when you process personal data beyond cookies—lead forms, analytics, and marketing tags each need lawful basis and notice.
Deploy a CMP that records purpose-level consent, supports Indian languages, and links to your privacy notice. Complynz Consent Management includes web, mobile, and offline QR capture with immutable audit logs.

FAQ
Is a cookie banner enough for DPDP website compliance?
No. DPDP requires consent for processing personal data across purposes—not only cookies. You need granular notices, withdrawal, and records.
Our point of view
This comparison is Complynz's own opinion, based on publicly available vendor information and our implementation experience as of October 2026. It is not independent research, a benchmark or an endorsement, and we sell a competing product.
Product names, logos and trademarks belong to their respective owners. Naming a vendor does not imply any affiliation, partnership or approval by them.
Vendors change their features and pricing often, so confirm current details with the vendor before you buy.
If you believe something here is inaccurate or out of date, email hello@complynz.com and we will review and correct it.
