Abstract

Data-driven industries have become vital to the global economy, leveraging vast amounts of personal data for innovation. However, this reliance on data introduces legal challenges related to intellectual property (IP) protection and data privacy. This paper explores these challenges in the context of Indian and global legal frameworks, emphasizing India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP), 2023, and relevant case law. By combining doctrinal and empirical analysis, the paper examines the legal tensions between protecting innovations and safeguarding personal data, offering recommendations for a balanced legal approach.
