One of the most often asked issues is if UIDAI obtains your financial information when you link your bank account, shares, or smartphone with your Aadhaar card. As part of its #AadhaarMythBusters campaign, UIDAI has attempted to refute myths around data security and privacy.

UIDAI tweeted that it only uses your Aadhaar to verify your identity and does not save any information about your financial transactions.

One of the most important documents, the Aadhaar card has several useful applications. Your 12-digit unique identification number from the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has now replaced other essential identification documents because it comprises both your demographic and biometric data.

This portal was recently created by UIDAI, ISRO, and the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology. Using it, you may quickly learn more about the local Aadhaar center. You can accomplish this without physically looking for nearby Aadhaar centers by doing it from the comfort of your own home.
