DataLens · by Comply Ark
Know where every record of personal data lives.
DataLens connects to your databases, file stores and SaaS tools, then builds a live inventory of the personal data inside them, classified for the DPDPA and mapped to the purpose it serves.
From first scan to audit evidence, it keeps you compliant as your data changes.

What it does
Inventory first. Everything else follows.
Every DPDPA obligation traces back to one question: what personal data do you hold, and why? Most companies answer it with a spreadsheet that was out of date the day it was finished. DataLens answers it continuously, then automates the paperwork that depends on the answer.
01 · Discover
A data map that builds itself
Point DataLens at PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, S3 buckets and the SaaS tools your teams actually use. The engine samples schemas and metadata, recognises PAN numbers, Aadhaar references, UPI handles, phone numbers and dozens of other Indian identifiers, then adds them to a living inventory.
When an engineer adds a column next quarter, the map updates. Nobody has to remember the spreadsheet.
statutory clock starts at receipt · escalations automatic
02 · Respond
Rights requests, handled on time
When a data principal asks what you hold on them, a statutory clock starts. DataLens already knows where their records live. It routes the request to the right owner, tracks every step against the deadline, and escalates before anything goes overdue.
Access, correction, erasure and nomination requests all follow the same workflow, and every step is recorded.
03 · Prove
Audit answers in minutes
Every scan, consent change and request lands in a tamper-evident log. When the auditor asks, you export a current RoPA, the consent ledger, or the complete processing history of a single record, each one dated, signed and consistent with what your systems actually do.
That turns most audit requests into a few minutes of work.

Connectors across databases, storage and SaaS
Continuous discovery keeps your inventory and evidence current
Deployment
Runs where your data is allowed to live
Regulated entities rarely get to choose where their data sits. DataLens deploys wherever yours has to stay.
SaaS
The fastest way to start, with Indian data residency, isolated tenancy and the same continuous discovery as every other mode.
Private cloud
DataLens runs inside your own VPC, so your security team keeps full control of access.
On-premises
Full deployment on your hardware, air-gapped if required. Built for banks, insurers and government suppliers.
Industries
Built for India's most regulated sectors
The organisations holding the most personal data feel the DPDPA first. DataLens is built for the realities of each.
Banking & NBFCs
The challenge
PAN, Aadhaar, account and transaction data spread across core banking, loan-origination and dozens of SaaS tools — with RBI obligations layered on top of the DPDPA.
With DataLens
One live inventory across every system, data-principal requests tracked against the statutory clock, and audit-ready RoPA your regulator and the Data Protection Board both accept.
Insurance
The challenge
Health, financial and nominee data flows through agents, TPAs and surveyors, then sits for years under long retention rules.
With DataLens
See exactly what's held and shared with each intermediary, enforce retention windows, and produce consent and processing records on demand.
Fintech & payments
The challenge
UPI handles, KYC documents and customer data move fast across rapidly changing schemas and third-party APIs.
With DataLens
Discovery keeps pace as your stack evolves, classifying new fields automatically so nothing slips past compliance between releases.
Healthcare & hospitals
The challenge
Sensitive patient records across EMR, lab and pharmacy systems, plus a high volume of access and erasure requests with little tolerance for error.
With DataLens
Locate every record tied to a patient in minutes, handle rights requests on time, and keep an audit trail that stands up to scrutiny.
