Masked Aadhaar , introduced by UIDAI, is a secure version of the Aadhaar card that enhances privacy by masking the first eight digits of the Aadhaar number. Designed for non-governmental use, it is ideal for private sector KYC processes, hotel check-ins, or third-party transactions. Retaining key details like name, photo, and address, it balances usability with privacy.  Tamper-proof and generated directly from UIDAI’s portal, it complies with data protection standards, such as India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.
