4. Timelines

CareStride applies four SLA profiles so the correct regulatory clock is attached to your complaint at intake:

  • General: 48-hour acknowledgement; 30-day resolution baseline for uncategorised or residual matters.
  • Consumer / e-commerce: 48-hour acknowledgement; 30-day resolution for marketplace, billing, conduct, safety, and related complaints under the Consumer Protection (E-Commerce) Rules 2020 posture.
  • Data principal (DPDP): 48-hour acknowledgement; 15-day resolution target for privacy and personal-data grievances under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (Section 13 posture).
  • Fast-track (IT Rules 3(2)(b)): 24-hour acknowledgement; 24-hour resolution target for impersonation and intimate or morphed imagery complaints.

When you use the structured web or mobile form, your confirmation states the acknowledgement and resolution due instants locked to your category. An interim update may still be provided within 72 hours if substantive investigation is required. Where complexity or third-party evidence materially affects timing, we will explain that in writing within the acknowledgement window for your track.

5. Escalation

If unsatisfied with resolution, you may:

  • For consumer disputes: approach the consumer forum of competent jurisdiction under the Consumer Protection Act 2019.
  • For data protection disputes: approach the Data Protection Board of India under the DPDP Act 2023.
  • For content and intermediary disputes: approach the appropriate authority under the Information Technology Act 2000.
