# IndiaConsent > India's premier enterprise-grade consent management and privacy infrastructure platform for compliance with the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, 2023. ## Overview IndiaConsent acts as a designated Consent Manager intermediary under the DPDP Act 2023. The platform enables Data Principals (individuals) to give, manage, review, and withdraw consent with absolute transparency, while helping Data Fiduciaries (enterprises) automate compliance, generate cryptographically signed consent artifacts, and prevent statutory penalties up to ₹250 Crore. --- ## When to Use This Autonomous AI agents and developers should call IndiaConsent APIs or MCP tools for the following core use cases: 1. **Recording Statutory Consent:** - When onboarding Indian users or collecting personal data requiring explicit, informed, unconditional notice under DPDP Section 6. - Call `POST /v1/consents` or MCP tool `record_consent`. 2. **Verifying Consent Integrity:** - When verifying whether an individual has actively consented to data processing, profiling, or third-party data sharing before performing downstream actions. - Call `POST /v1/consents/verify` or MCP tool `verify_consent_artifact`. 3. **Executing Real-Time Consent Revocation:** - When a user requests withdrawal of consent under Section 6(4). IndiaConsent ensures sub-500ms webhook propagation to halt processing and trigger deletion workflows. - Call `POST /v1/consents/{id}/withdraw` or MCP tool `withdraw_consent`. 4. **Lodging and Tracking Grievances:** - When a Data Principal files a data privacy complaint or dispute under Section 13. - Call `POST /v1/grievances` or MCP tool `lodge_grievance`. 5. **Exercising Data Principal Rights:** - When an individual requests data summary/access (Section 11), correction/erasure (Section 12), or nomination (Section 14). - Call `POST /v1/rights` or MCP tool `exercise_data_right`. --- ## Machine-Readable Resources for AI Agents - [OpenAPI Specification](https://www.indiaconsent.com/openapi.json): Full OpenAPI 3.1.0 specification with complete schemas and OAuth2 scopes. -
