Privacy Policy

Effective 2026-08-30

NRI.wiki ("we," "us," or "this site") is an independent informational resource for Non-Resident Indians. This page explains what information is collected when you visit https://nri.wiki, how it's used, and the choices you have. It applies to this website only — it does not apply to the third-party sites we link to.

What This Site Is

NRI.wiki is a static, content-only website. There are no user accounts, no logins, and no forms that collect personal information like your name, address, or financial details. You can read every guide on the site without giving us anything.

Information Collected Automatically

Like most websites, we use standard web analytics and advertising tools that collect some information automatically:

  • Google Analytics — collects information such as pages viewed, time on site, approximate location (derived from IP address), device and browser type, and how you arrived at the site (e.g., from a search engine or an ad).
  • Google Ads — if you arrive here by clicking one of our ads, Google may set a cookie used to measure ad performance (for example, whether you later visited a page relevant to that ad).
  • Outbound link clicks — when you click a link to one of our sponsor partners (see below), we record which link was clicked and which page you clicked it from. We do this to understand which guides are useful, not to identify you individually.

None of this tells us who you are by name. It's aggregate, cookie- and device-based information used to understand site usage, standard for any site running Google Analytics or Google Ads.

Cookies

Google Analytics and Google Ads use cookies (small files stored in your browser) to do the above. You can block or delete cookies through your browser's settings at any time — this may affect how some site features behave, though NRI.wiki itself will still work normally since it's a static content site. You can also opt out of Google Analytics specifically using Google's Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, or manage ad personalization at Google Ad Settings.

Sponsor & Partner Links

Some guides link to third-party services relevant to that topic — for example, PAN application assistance or driving-test preparation resources. These are clearly presented as external links, and NRI.wiki may receive compensation when you visit or use one of these services. Once you click through, you are on that company's own website, governed by their own privacy policy and terms — NRI.wiki has no control over, and no responsibility for, how they handle your information.

How Information Is Used

The information described above is used to:

  • Understand which guides are useful and where the site's content or navigation could be improved.
  • Measure whether advertising campaigns are reaching people who find the content useful.
  • Keep the site running reliably and securely.

We do not sell personal information, and we do not share it with data brokers.

International Visitors

NRI.wiki is read by NRIs around the world, including in the US, Canada, the UK, Australia, and the UAE. Analytics and advertising data described above is processed by Google, which may process it on servers located outside your home country. This page describes our actual practices in plain terms; it isn't formal legal advice for any specific jurisdiction's privacy law.

Children's Privacy

NRI.wiki is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 13.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this page as the site or the tools it uses change. The effective date at the top of this page reflects the most recent update.
