> **unticked** consent box. Use plain language and offer it in English and the local
> language(s). The wording follows sections 5 and 6 of the Digital Personal Data
> Protection Act, 2023 and the DPDP Rules, 2025 notice elements (see
> `../references/data-and-consent.md`). This is NEST's recommended wording (R7), not
> legal advice. Replace every `{{…}}`.
