DPDP Act Logo & Tagline Contest

About DPDP Act Logo & Tagline Contest

As the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, 2023 moves into implementation, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) is rolling out a nationwide awareness and capacity-building programme covering Government, industry and citizens. This programme needs a distinct visual identity – a Logo and a Tagline that will appear on every awareness and communication asset, all promotional materials (physical and digital), events, conferences and workshops, the DPDP Handbook, social media campaigns, posters, films and digital properties etc.

MeitY in collaboration with MyGov invites citizens to design a Logo and coin a Tagline that captures the spirit of the DPDP Act – the citizen’s right over their personal data, trust in India’s digital economy and responsible data processing. The Tagline should be short, memorable and submitted in both English and Hindi. The winning identity will represent the DPDP awareness programme across the nation.
