DPDP Compliance
A Block Connect is committed to respecting the data protection rights of individuals under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act), India’s landmark legislation governing the processing of personal data.
Scope and Applicability
This DPDP Compliance page applies to all visitors of ablok.in. While A Block Connect does not require user registration or maintain a database of personal information, we may collect limited, non-identifiable data through automated means such as web analytics, server logs, and cookies to improve site functionality and user experience. This data is processed solely for legitimate purposes and in full compliance with the DPDP Act.
Your Rights Under DPDP
Under the DPDP Act, you have the following rights:
- Right to access your personal data processed by us
- Right to correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data
- Right to request deletion of your personal data
- Right to grievance redressal if you believe your data has been processed unlawfully
Please note: Since we do not collect or store personal data beyond what is technically necessary for site operation, the scope of these rights is limited to data we may incidentally hold, such as IP addresses or cookie identifiers.
How We Comply
A Block Connect complies with the DPDP Act by:
- Minimizing data collection to only what is essential for site functionality
- Not storing personal data longer than necessary
- Using data only for the purpose of improving user experience and site performance
- Ensuring no data is shared with third parties for commercial purposes
Data We Process
We may automatically collect the following types of data:
- IP addresses (temporary, anonymized)
- Browser type and device information
- Pages visited and time spent on site
- Cookies for session management and analytics
No names, emails, phone numbers, or other personally identifiable information are collected or stored.
Legal Basis for Processing
Our processing of data is based on legitimate interest under Section 5(2) of the DPDP Act, as it is necessary for the proper functioning and improvement of our informational website. We do not rely on consent for this processing, as it is not required for non-identifiable, non-intrusive data used for site analytics.
