DPDP Bot, a public-page privacy signal scanner
DPDP Bot scans a website’s homepage and one privacy notice for signals related to India’s Digital Personal Data Protection framework.
- For
- Indian website owners and privacy reviewers
- Worth noticing
- It rechecks redirects and connection targets, while limiting its evidence to the homepage and one privacy notice.
Field notes
The scanner limits its inspection to a submitted homepage and one linked privacy or cookie notice, rather than attempting a full-site audit. It checks for specific rights language, grievance details, forms, third-party tags, HTTPS, and selected security headers, then applies fixed deductions to a 100-point starting score. Its network safeguards refuse private and local targets and repeat checks across redirects. The page explicitly distinguishes public signals from a legal compliance certificate.
