Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, hiring a private investigator in India is completely legal. Private detectives operate as fact-finders and evidence gatherers. At Deep Trace Detective, all investigations are conducted strictly within the boundaries of the Constitution of India, the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act 2023, the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), and the Information Technology Act 2000.

Client confidentiality is our absolute sacred principle. All interactions are protected under ironclad Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs). Case files are encrypted with military-grade AES-256 protocols, client identifiers are pseudonymized with case codes, and operatives in the field only know need-to-know details without ever seeing the client’s identity.

Under Indian law (Indian Telegraph Act and IT Act), unauthorized phone tapping, wiretapping, WhatsApp interception, and obtaining Call Detail Records (CDR) without authorized judicial/police warrants is illegal.

Our evidence documentation—including time-stamped photographs, unedited video footage, forensic audits, public registry filings, and certified investigator affidavits—is compiled strictly under Section 63 (electronic records) and related provisions of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam / Indian Evidence Act, making it solid for matrimonial, civil, and criminal proceedings.

Each investigation is unique in scope, location, and operational complexity.

Complex corporate due diligence or missing person tracing may take 2 to 4 weeks. Interim status briefings are provided regularly.

Our comprehensive pre-matrimonial inquiry verifies: (1) Employment, salary, and company reputation; (2) Educational qualifications; (3) Family background and social standing; (4) Financial standing, assets, and liabilities; (5) Past marriages, hidden engagements, or civil suits; (6) Daily habits, social circle, and lifestyle integrity.
