Our advertising rules

Ads must be distinguishable from editorial content.

No influence

Advertisers do not control factual conclusions.

No fake official status

Contrast, zoom, labels, and text structure matter.

Feedback

Accessibility barriers can be reported for review.

Policy area

Editorial and Advertising Separation

Editorial topics are selected for reader usefulness, not because an advertiser pays for favorable coverage. Advertising relationships must not remove warnings, alter source conclusions, block corrections, or create claims of government approval.

Why this matters

Commercial presentation should never be confused with an official Aadhaar instruction.

Policy area

Google AdSense and Other Ad Providers

The site may use Google AdSense and may use other advertising technology in the future. Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies or similar technologies to serve, measure, limit, or personalize ads where permitted by user choices and applicable law.

See the Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy for data and cookie disclosures.

Why this matters

Commercial presentation should never be confused with an official Aadhaar instruction.

Policy area

How Advertising Is Identified

Display ads should use clear visual separation from editorial content.
Native ads must not mimic official UIDAI notices, warnings, or orders.
Paid content should clearly use “Advertisement” or “Sponsored” labels.
Affiliate links require clear disclosure near recommendations.
Policy area

Advertising We Should Reject or Restrict

False claims implying UIDAI or Government of India endorsement.
Deceptive offers to issue, alter, recover, sell, or bypass Aadhaar services.
Fraudulent, unsafe, discriminatory, malicious, or violating content.
Requests for Aadhaar OTPs, biometrics, or credentials.
Misleading buttons, fake alerts, or ads designed as site navigation.
Policy area

Sponsored Content Standards

If sponsored editorial-style content is ever accepted, the sponsor must be identified and the commercial relationship disclosed prominently. Sponsored content must still meet our accuracy, safety, correction, and sourcing standards.

Why this matters

Commercial presentation should never be confused with an official Aadhaar instruction.

Policy area

Ad Personalization and Choices

Depending on configuration, geography, consent, and provider settings, ads may be personalized or non-personalized. Users can manage available Google advertising preferences and, where the website provides cookie controls, adjust those choices through the site interface.

Why this matters

Commercial presentation should never be confused with an official Aadhaar instruction.

Policy area

Advertising Complaints

To report an ad that appears deceptive, unsafe, or confusingly official, email info@myadharuidai.com with the page URL, approximate time, screenshot if safe to share, and the advertiser or destination shown.

Why this matters

Commercial presentation should never be confused with an official Aadhaar instruction.

Policy area

Policy Changes

Advertising partners and technologies can change. This page and the Privacy/Cookie policies should be reviewed whenever a new ad provider, consent platform, measurement tool, or sponsored-content format is introduced.

Why this matters

Commercial presentation should never be confused with an official Aadhaar instruction.

Commercial relationships cannot buy editorial trust.

Advertising can fund the site, but it cannot remove warnings, change sourced facts, or create government endorsement.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Do advertisers control the content published on this website?

No. Advertising relationships do not control our source selection, factual conclusions, corrections, safety warnings, or editorial decisions.

Does an advertisement mean UIDAI approves the advertiser?

No. Advertising displayed alongside Aadhaar-related content does not indicate authorization, endorsement, or approval by UIDAI or the Government of India.

How are advertisements distinguished from editorial content?

Advertising and sponsored placements should be visually separated and clearly identified so users can distinguish commercial content from independent editorial guidance.

How can I report a misleading or unsafe advertisement?

Contact us with the page URL, approximate time the advertisement appeared, advertiser name or destination if available, and a screenshot that does not contain sensitive personal information.
