Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 3, 2026  ·  Applies to: Census Guide 2027 (se-census.vercel.app)

1. Overview

Census Guide 2027 ("we", "our", or "the site") is a free, independent informational website about the Census 2027 Self-Enumeration process in India. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected when you visit this site, how it is used, and your rights.

Short version: We do not collect, store, or sell any personal information. You do not need to create an account, provide your name, or enter any personal data to use this site.

2. Information We Do NOT Collect

Census Guide 2027 does not:

  • Collect your name, email address, phone number, or any other personal identifier
  • Require registration or login
  • Use contact forms that store submissions on our servers
  • Track you across other websites
  • Store your census answers, SE ID, or any government form data
  • Use user profiling, retargeting, or behavioural advertising from our side

3. Automatically Collected Technical Information

Like most websites, standard web server logs may record basic technical information when you visit — such as your browser type, operating system, and the pages you viewed. This data is not linked to any personally identifiable information and is not used to identify individual visitors.

Your language preference (English, Hindi, or Marathi) is stored in your browser's localStorage on your own device only. It is never transmitted to our servers.

4. Cookies

Census Guide 2027 itself does not set any tracking cookies. The only data stored locally is your language preference in localStorage, which remains on your device.

However, if advertising services (such as Google AdSense) are enabled in the future, those services may use cookies and similar technologies to serve relevant advertisements. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet. You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings .

5. Google AdSense (Advertising)

This site may use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google AdSense is an advertising service provided by Google LLC. When enabled, Google may use cookies and web beacons to collect data for ad personalisation purposes.

Google's privacy practices are governed by the Google Privacy Policy . By using this site while advertising is enabled, you consent to Google's use of cookies as described in their policy.

We comply with Google AdSense program policies, including by displaying this Privacy Policy prominently on the site.

6. Third-Party Links

This website contains links to external websites, most notably the official government census portal at se.census.gov.in . When you follow these links, you leave Census Guide 2027 and are subject to the privacy policy of the destination website. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content or privacy practices of third-party sites.

7. Children's Privacy

This site is intended for use by adults (18 years and above) who are head of household or assisting a household member with census registration. We do not knowingly collect any information from children under the age of 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information through this site, please contact us and we will take steps to remove such information.

8. Data Security

Since we do not collect or store personal data on our servers, the risk of a data breach affecting your personal information through this site is minimal. The site is served as static files over HTTPS, ensuring that data in transit is encrypted.

9. Your Rights

Since we do not collect personal data, there is no personal information held by us to access, correct, or delete. Your language preference stored in your browser's localStorage can be cleared at any time through your browser settings.

If you are a resident of the European Union, the GDPR may grant you additional rights. However, as this site targets Indian residents and does not collect personal data, standard GDPR obligations do not apply in practice.

10. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time — for example, if we introduce new features or advertising services. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will reflect any changes. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.

Continued use of Census Guide 2027 after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.

11. Contact

If you have any questions or concerns about this Privacy Policy, please contact us:

We will respond to privacy-related enquiries within 7 business days.
