Inside the DPDPA Awareness Course
The full DPDPA Awareness Course: six short modules in about sixty minutes.
Every module ends with a scenario and a drag-and-drop exercise, not a lecture — the kind of everyday decision an employee actually has to make: which inbox to email a report to, whether to forward a customer's delete request, how to spot a suspected incident.
