Frequently Asked Questions

Doesn't the e-Aadhaar download already have a password?

Yes - e-Aadhaar from UIDAI opens with the first four letters of your name in capitals followed by your birth year. But if you have removed that password for convenience, or you are protecting a scanned copy, adding your own strong password restores the protection.

What kind of password should I set?

Use something long and not derivable from the document itself - avoid your name, birth year, or the default UIDAI format, since anyone who knows the convention can guess those. A passphrase of a few random words works well.

Is my Aadhaar uploaded during encryption?

No. The password is applied using encryption inside your browser - the PDF never leaves your device. There is no server that ever sees the unprotected file.

How do I share the password with the recipient safely?

Send the file and the password through different channels - for example, email the PDF and share the password by phone or in person. Never put the password in the same email or chat as the attachment.
