Background

About Arjun Mohandas

I am a certified Data Privacy & Protection Consultant with over four years of experience in designing, implementing, and managing privacy programs across diverse sectors, including finance, e-commerce, insurance, travel, and non-profit. My expertise spans global privacy regulations such as GDPR, DPDPA, PDPL, and PDPA, alongside ISO 27701 and ISO 27001 frameworks. In my role at KPMG India, I have led global privacy programs, delivered comprehensive compliance assessments, and designed consent management frameworks that align with international regulations. My work includes conducting DPIAs, RoPAs, TIAs, and third-party reviews, embedding privacy-by-design principles into business processes, and providing training that strengthens organizational privacy awareness. Prior to KPMG, I served as a Data Protection Analyst at Deeshaa Limited, managing privacy compliance for member firms across multiple continents. I developed unified privacy frameworks, created operational policies, supported breach management, and designed privacy awareness programs tailored to jurisdiction-specific requirements. My earlier experience at Addictive Learning Technology Pvt Ltd allowed me to contribute to privacy education at scale by authoring detailed course materials, templates, and training programs adopted by hundreds of learners. Recognized with the KPMG Rising Star Award, I am committed to advancing responsible data use, regulatory compliance, and privacy governance that builds trust and mitigates risk.
