More than 50% of children used shared devices, and there isn’t a level playing field to access to the internet, said Siddharth Pillai of Aarambh India. This is the imperfect world that guardian data fiduciaries in the country will have to navigate, according to the provisions of the Personal Data Protection (PDP) Bill, 2019. These fiduciaries are supposed to verify the age of their users, and obtain consent from their guardian or parents if the user is a “child” anyone under 18.
How will these fiduciaries do what they do, considering this complicated and confusing mandate? Held on December 9 with the support of Facebook and Google, our discussion explored how companies, NGOs and child welfare bodies will be affected by the PDP Bill. Watch full video of the discussion:
