Use Aadhaar confidently, but observe same usage hygiene like Bank account, and Passport: UIDAI

Use Aadhaar confidently as per your choice to avail benefits and services, but observe same level of usage hygiene like any other identity documents including Bank account, PAN or Passport. Aadhaar is residents’ digital ID, and it works as a single source of online and offline identity verification for residents across the country. Wherever a resident does not wish to share his or her Aadhaar number, UIDAI provides facility for generating Virtual Identifier (VID).
