Checkout Consent Audit
Liability Check

Your checkout isn't just about sales; it's a critical DPDP liability point. Failing to capture explicit, purpose-specific consent at payment can expose your business to penalties up to ₹250 Crore.

Why Checkout Consent Audit is at Risk

Every click on your 'Buy Now' or 'Place Order' button triggers DPDP liability. You must prove that you collected **explicit consent for each data processing purpose** – be it payment, shipping, or marketing opt-ins. Are you collecting Aadhaar details for verification where not strictly necessary, or pre-ticking boxes for email newsletters? The Data Protection Board expects demonstrable proof that consent was **freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous**, and that you retain records of this consent, especially for sensitive data processed during the checkout flow.

Common Violations

1.Pre-ticking marketing opt-in boxes on the checkout page, assuming consent for future communications.
2.Bundling consent for payment processing with marketing or analytics cookies, without clear separation.
3.Failing to retain verifiable proof (timestamp, consent text, user ID) of consent decisions made at purchase time.

The Immediate Fix

Immediately audit your entire checkout flow. Ensure marketing opt-ins are *always* unchecked by default, clearly separate from essential payment processing consent, and that you log and store verifiable proof of all consent decisions made at purchase.
