Website policies

What happens to what you type, what you may do with this site, and who owns what.

Privacy

There is no account, no analytics, no advertising and no third-party tracking on this site. Nothing you type is sold, shared or profiled.

Two things do leave your browser, and only when you ask for them:

  • Your grievance text is sent to our server and on to a language model in order to route it and rewrite it. It is not stored on our server after the response is returned, and it is not used to train any model.
  • Nothing else. Your name, address, phone number, email, filing date and registration number are held in your own browser’s local storage and are never transmitted anywhere.

Because that data lives only in your browser, clearing your browsing data deletes it permanently and it does not follow you to another device. We cannot recover it for you, because we never had it.

RTI grievances routinely contain health, pension and police details. If you are working on a shared or public computer, finish and export what you need in one sitting, then clear the browser data.

Terms of use

This is a prototype built for a hackathon. It drafts documents; it does not file them, and it is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by the Government of India or any State Government.

  • Nothing here is legal advice. Read every draft before you file it — you are responsible for what it says.
  • Routing suggestions are estimates. Confirm the public authority against its own official listing before filing.
  • Nothing here guarantees that any public authority will reply, or that a draft will be accepted.
  • The fee step is simulated. No money is taken and no application is submitted to any authority.

Copyright

The text of the Right to Information Act, 2005 and the RTI Rules, 2012 is Government of India material, reproduced here only as short quotations and clause references for explanation.

The public authority directory is compiled from publicly published departmental listings. Any errors in it are ours, not theirs — check the official source linked on each authority before you rely on it.

Everything else on this site — the interface, the drafting templates and the diagrams — is the work of this project’s authors.

Hyperlinking policy

You may link to any page on this site directly. No permission is needed and no link should be framed inside another page in a way that suggests this is anyone else’s content.

Where this site links out — to rtionline.gov.in, to a department’s own site, or to the text of the Act — those destinations are not under our control. We link to them because they are the authoritative source, and we are not responsible for their content or availability.
