Privacy Policy

At Sarkari Yojana (accessible from https://www.sarkariyojnaa.com/), protecting the privacy, digital security, and personal data of our readers is our highest institutional priority. This comprehensive 2026 Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we process and safeguard it, how third-party advertising and analytics partners operate on our site, and how you can exercise your statutory privacy rights under applicable Indian and international data protection laws, including:

• The Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act) and rules framed thereunder by the Government of India (2026);
• The Information Technology Act, 2000 and the Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules, 2021 (Updated 2026);
• Global privacy frameworks including the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act / California Privacy Rights Act (CCPA/CPRA) for international visitors.

1. Summary of Data We Collect vs. Data We Never Collect

Because our readers visit sarkariyojnaa.com to read news and step-by-step guides about government welfare schemes and recruitment portals, we maintain a strict Data Minimization Principle:

2. Log Files, Analytics & Performance Telemetry

Sarkari Yojana follows standard digital publishing practices in using server log files and privacy-enhanced web analytics (including Google Analytics 4). When you read an article on sarkariyojnaa.com, our web servers automatically record non-personally identifiable technical metadata, including:

• Truncated / anonymized Internet Protocol (IP) address and approximate geographic region (country/state level);
• Browser type, operating system, screen resolution, and device category (Mobile, Desktop, or Tablet);
• Date and time of access, referring page (such as Google Search or Google Discover), and pages visited on our site;
• Core Web Vitals performance metrics (Largest Contentful Paint, Interaction to Next Paint, and Cumulative Layout Shift) to ensure fast page loading on mobile networks.

This technical information is not linked to any personally identifiable identity and is used strictly to optimize site speed, diagnose server errors, and understand which government scheme guides are most useful to readers.

3. Cookies, Web Beacons & Local Storage

Like all modern news publications, sarkariyojnaa.com uses essential and analytical cookies (small text files stored by your web browser):

1. Essential Performance & Security Cookies: Used by our LiteSpeed Enterprise web server and WordPress security layer to serve cached pages rapidly and protect against malicious automated attacks.
2. Analytics Cookies (Google Analytics): Help us measure aggregate traffic volume, popular scheme categories, and reading duration. You can opt out of Google Analytics across all websites by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
3. Advertising Cookies: Used by authorized advertising partners (such as Google AdSense) to display relevant, non-intrusive display advertisements and prevent the same ad from appearing repeatedly.

How to Manage or Disable Cookies: You can block, clear, or restrict cookies at any time through your browser settings (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, or Brave). Disabling cookies will not restrict your ability to read any article on sarkariyojnaa.com.

4. Google AdSense, DoubleClick DART Cookies & Third-Party Advertising

To keep all our Hindi and English scheme guides 100% free of subscription paywalls, we display programmatic advertisements served by Google AdSense and certified third-party ad networks:

• Google DoubleClick DART Cookie: Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies (including the DoubleClick DART cookie and modern Privacy Sandbox / Topics API signals) to serve ads to users based on their visit to https://www.sarkariyojnaa.com/ and other websites on the internet.
• Opting Out of Personalized Advertising: Users may decline the use of personalized advertising cookies at any time by visiting Google Ad Settings (adssettings.google.com) or the Google Advertising Privacy Policy at https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads.
• Industry-Wide Ad Choices: Readers may also opt out of third-party vendor cookies for personalized advertising by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page or www.aboutads.info/choices (or youronlinechoices.eu for EEA/UK users).
• Editorial & Ad Separation: Advertisers and third-party ad networks have zero access to our editorial CMS and zero influence over our factual coverage of government schemes.

5. Public Comments & Citizen Cyber-Safety Warning

When readers leave a comment on an article, the name and comment text submitted are publicly visible. For your protection against cyber fraud and identity theft:

• Strictly Do Not Post Personal Identifiers: Never write your Aadhaar number, mobile phone number, bank account number, application registration ID, or date of birth in public comment boxes.
• Our moderators actively review and scrub public comments that accidentally contain phone numbers or identity numbers, and we immediately delete spam, phishing links, or impersonation attempts.

6. External Links to Official Government Portals (.gov.in / .nic.in)

Every guide on Sarkari Yojana includes direct reference links to official Central and State Government portals (such as pmkisan.gov.in, uidai.gov.in, scholarships.gov.in, or state .nic.in domains) so citizens can verify notifications and apply directly. Please note that once you click an external link and leave sarkariyojnaa.com, our Privacy Policy no longer applies, and your interaction is governed by the privacy and security policies of that respective official government website.

7. Your Statutory Rights Under India’s DPDP Act (2023 / 2026) & Global Laws

In accordance with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP Act) of India, GDPR, and CCPA, every reader (Data Principal) holds the following enforceable rights regarding any personal data voluntarily shared with us (such as via email or comments):

1. Right to Access Information: You have the right to request a summary of any personal data you have voluntarily provided to us and how it is being processed.
2. Right to Correction & Erasure (Right to be Forgotten): You may request immediate correction of inaccurate details or permanent deletion of your comment or email correspondence from our records.

8. Children’s Privacy Protection

Sarkari Yojana does not knowingly solicit or collect personally identifiable information from children under the age of 18 (under India’s DPDP Act) or under the age of 13 (under COPPA). While we publish informational guides on school scholarships and board examination results for students and parents, students should never submit personal contact details without parental supervision. If a parent or guardian believes that a minor has submitted personal information on our site, please write to sarkariyojnaaa@gmail.com and we will purge the data within 24 hours.
