PRODUCT BOUNDARIES

Governance software cannot decide every legal question.

Pramana is intended to support organisational DPDP governance. It is not a substitute for accountable decision-makers, qualified legal advice or professional audit.

What the product should not be taken to mean

Not a legal opinion

General product information cannot determine legal applicability or resolve fact-specific questions.

Not a compliance certificate

No software output alone establishes that an organisation complies with every applicable obligation.

Not a substitute for accountability

Organisations remain responsible for their own roles, facts, policies, decisions and oversight.

Not a guaranteed outcome

A record of a control or blocked action cannot prove what penalty would otherwise have been imposed or what weight an external reviewer will give that record.

Not a professional audit

An audit examines broader people, processes, technology, contracts and evidence; governance software does not replace that independent work.

Product scope must be confirmed

Public information about a law or topic does not establish that a tested product control is available for every provision or deployment. Confirm the relevant scope directly.

Applicability depends on facts

Role allocation, purpose, the nature and context of processing, commencement, exemptions and separate sector requirements may matter. Missing or inaccurate facts should be resolved by people responsible for the processing and, where appropriate, qualified advisers.
