This policy is designed to align with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDPA) and other applicable Indian data protection laws. It supplements, and does not replace, the Company's broader Employee Handbook, IT Usage Policy, or Code of Conduct.
Section 2
This policy applies to all personal data processed through the App, including data entered by users, data generated automatically by the App, and data derived from use of the App in the course of employment.
It applies to all employees, interns, consultants, and contractors of The SS Group who are granted access to the App ("Users").
