In an era defined by the ubiquity of personal data in the digital realm, the right to privacy has taken on paramount significance. This research paper, titled "Guardians of the Digital Vault: Analyzing the Right to Privacy under the Indian Constitution in the Age of Digital Personal Data," embarked on a comprehensive exploration to delve into the status of the right to privacy within the context of the Indian Constitution and its alignment with the evolving landscape of digital personal data. The first objective of this study was to gauge the level of awareness among Indian citizens concerning their right to privacy. Findings from descriptive statistics and correlation analysis underscored the critical nature of this inquiry. The study discovered a statistically significant relationship between Indian citizens' awareness levels and their right to privacy. This suggests that an informed citizenry is more inclined to assert and safeguard their privacy rights, accentuating the importance of educational and awareness initiatives on this critical topic. The second objective was to evaluate the alignment between digital platforms, government policies in India, and the constitutional provisions pertaining to the right to privacy. Results from regression analysis, as presented in the model summary, ANOVA, and coefficients, painted a picture of persistent misalignment. Data security, public awareness, and constitutional provisions exerted limited influence on digital platforms and government policies concerning privacy protection. In summation, the right to privacy in the digital era is a multifaceted and dynamic challenge that demands sustained attention and concerted efforts from all stakeholders. As technology advances and personal data assumes a central role in our lives, the preservation of privacy remains a fundamental aspect of safeguarding individual liberties and upholding democratic values in the digital age
