How legal teams should use this mapping
Use it to identify where Kaagazz can supply a workflow, control or evidence record within the organisation's wider compliance programme. Applicability, lawful basis, retention decisions, notices, policies and regulatory reporting remain the responsibility of the Data Fiduciary and its legal advisers.

Forensic-grade traceability for electronic and digital records
Kaagazz Secure preserves attributable activity and integrity metadata - including user or role, action, date and time, device or system, machine details, operating-system details and document-hash information. This can support verification and preparation of electronic records under Sections 57 and 61-63 of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023.
Section 57Recognises specified electronic or digital records as primary evidence in the circumstances set out in the Act.
Sections 61 and 62Recognise electronic or digital records while making their proof subject to the special provisions for electronic evidence.
Section 63Sets conditions for admissibility of electronic records and includes the prescribed certificate requirement.
Official reference: Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023. Kaagazz supports traceability and evidence preparation; it does not determine admissibility, which remains subject to law and judicial assessment.
