Age verification in India – Technology, Policy, and the Digital Personal Data Protection Act

Join Biometric Update managing editor Chris Burt and analyst Joel R. McConvey in conversation with Shreya Suri, Partner at CMS INDUSLAW, Pratishtha Arora, CEO of Social & Media Matters and Iain Corby, Executive Director of the Age Verification Providers Association, for a timely discussion on the evolving landscape of age assurance in India.

With the Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDPA) now in force, organizations are facing new challenges and responsibilities when it comes to verifying the age of users — particularly minors. Many of those organizations still have important questions about what those responsibilities are and how they should carry them out, and further changes to the rules remain possible.

This webinar explores how technology providers and digital platforms can navigate age verification and age estimation in compliance with India’s regulatory framework, and what improvements experts say are still needed.

We discuss:
• Key age-related provisions in the DPDPA and their implications
• Gaps and criticisms in the current policy — especially around parental consent and age thresholds
• The role of biometrics and digital ID in enabling privacy-preserving age assurance
• Global best practices and what India can learn from other jurisdictions

Don’t miss this opportunity to gain critical insight into one of the most pressing data protection and digital identity issues in India today.
