What does this website legal scanner check?

This scanner checks core legal pages and disclosure signals, including privacy policy visibility, terms links, consent language, and compliance cues linked to DPDP Act, IT Rules, and consumer law requirements in India.

Can this tool check DPDP Act compliance for Indian websites?

Yes. The scanner is built for India-focused website compliance checks and flags high-level DPDP-related gaps such as notice transparency and policy hygiene. It is a diagnostic aid and not a substitute for legal advice.

What should I fix first after a failed website compliance scan?

Fix critical trust and compliance basics first: publish an accessible privacy policy, surface clear terms and contact details, and align consent/disclosure text with your actual data use. Then re-scan and prioritize unresolved warnings.

Why Indian Legal Compliance Matters

The Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act 2023 has fundamentally changed how Indian websites must operate. Old GDPR policies are no longer enough.

🚔

Mandatory DPO

Under DPDP, significant data fiduciaries MUST appoint a Data Protection Officer. Even small startups must have a clear Grievance Mechanism.

💰

Massive Penalties

Failure to implement "Reasonable Security Safeguards" can attract penalties up to ₹250 Crores per instance. Ignorance is no longer a defense.

📋

Notice Provisions

You must provide a clear "Notice" in simple and plain language (available in English or any 8th Schedule language) explaining what data you collect.

What Indian Laws Apply to Your Website?

Every website that collects data from Indian users is subject to a rapidly evolving set of Indian legal requirements. The Contract Shield Website Legal Scanner checks your site for compliance across four key legal frameworks:

Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, 2023: Requires explicit consent for data collection, clear privacy notice, data retention limits, and a grievance officer contact.
IT (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules, 2021: Requires a published Terms of Service and Grievance Redressal Mechanism for platforms with significant user bases.
Consumer Protection Act, 2019 (E-Commerce Rules): E-commerce websites must display seller information, return policy, pricing transparency, and a dispute resolution contact prominently.
GST Display Requirements: Websites of GST-registered businesses must display their GSTIN and provide GST-compliant invoices for transactions.

Penalties for Non-Compliance

The DPDP Act 2023 sets penalties of up to Rs 250 crore per data breach for inadequate security measures, and up to Rs 200 crore for failure to notify breaches within the mandated timeframe. Non-compliance with the Consumer Protection E-Commerce Rules can result in platform de-listing and fines. The Website Legal Scanner helps identify your most critical compliance gaps before regulators do.
