Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

EdTech Legal Compliance
1. Is DPDP Act applicable to EdTech platforms collecting student data?
Yes, every EdTech platform processing personal data (name, email, Aadhaar, grades, etc.) is a Data Fiduciary under DPDP Act 2023. You must appoint a DPO, obtain verifiable parental consent for minors, and enable data deletion rights. Our DPDP Compliance Package makes you 100% compliant from Day 1.
2. Can EdTech platforms record live classes with student video feeds?
Only with explicit, granular consent from parents/students, limited retention, and secure storage. Recordings must auto-delete post-purpose. We draft Video Consent & Retention Policies aligned with DPDP and IT Rules.
3. Do I need to register with UDISE or DIKSHA to offer online courses?
UDISE registration is mandatory only if you operate a formal school or seek government recognition. Purely supplemental EdTech platforms are exempt but must still comply with data reporting if availing PPP schemes. We guide you on Optional vs Mandatory Reporting.
4. Are refund policies mandatory for paid courses under Consumer Protection Rules?
Yes, under Consumer Protection (E-Commerce) Rules 2020, you must display clear refund/cancellation terms before payment. Hidden clauses are punishable. We draft CCPA-Compliant Refund Policies with timeline SLAs.
5. Can EdTech startups use third-party content (YouTube, PDFs) in courses?
Only with proper licensing agreements or under fair use for education (limited scope). Unauthorized use invites copyright strikes. We draft Content Licensing Agreements and help negotiate with publishers/creators.
