Privacy Policy

This Vande Bharat Express guide collects almost no personal information. There are no accounts, no sign-up forms, no advertising and no analytics, and we set no cookies. The Vande Bharat tools on this site run entirely in your browser, so what you type into them is not sent to us. The only personal information we receive is what you choose to send us by email. This page explains exactly what happens when you use the site, and what we do with an email you send.

Who we are

This Vande Bharat Express guide is an independent passenger guide to Vande Bharat trains: their routes, timetables, fares, rules and seats. It is not run by Indian Railways, IRCTC, the Ministry of Railways or any railway zone, and it does not sell tickets. You can contact us at [email address coming soon].

What we do not collect

How the Vande Bharat Express tools handle your data

All 16 Vande Bharat tools on this site, such as the fare calculator, the refund calculator and the trains between stations tool, run in your browser. The timetables, fares and rules they use are loaded with the page, and every calculation happens on your device. When you pick a Vande Bharat train, a date or a station, that choice is not sent to us or to anyone else.

The same applies to the train search on the homepage: your search text is matched against the Vande Bharat routes inside the page and never leaves your device.

The luggage tag maker is the only tool where you might type personal details, such as your name and phone number. They stay in your browser, are used only to draw the tag on screen and to print it, and disappear when you close or reload the page. We recommend never writing your PNR on a luggage tag.

Fonts and other files

Every file this Vande Bharat Express guide needs, including the Barlow Condensed typeface used for headings, the logo, the icons and the timetable data behind the tools, is served from this website itself. Your browser does not contact Google Fonts, a content delivery network for scripts, or any other third-party service to display a page. That means no outside company learns which Vande Bharat train pages you read from the way the page is built. The typeface is the open-source Barlow Condensed, published under the SIL Open Font License, and is bundled with the site.

Server logs

Like almost every website, the server that delivers these pages may record standard technical logs: your IP address, the page you requested, the time, and your browser type. These logs are used only to run the site, keep it secure and fix errors. We do not use them to identify you or to build a profile of you, and we do not combine them with any other information.

Emails you send to this Vande Bharat Express guide

If you email us, for example to report a correction, we receive your email address, your message and anything you attach. We use them only to read and reply to your message and, for corrections, to keep a record of what we changed and why. We do not add you to a mailing list, and we do not sell, rent or share your email address with anyone.

Please do not send us your PNR, IRCTC login, payment details, Aadhaar or other ID documents. We never need them. If you send them by mistake, we will delete them.

You can ask us at any time to delete your emails. We keep messages only as long as we need them to reply and to keep a record of corrections.

This Vande Bharat guide links to official services such as IRCTC for booking, NTES for live running status, the Indian Railways PNR enquiry, Rail Madad, and press releases from the Ministry of Railways on PIB. When you follow a link, you leave this site, and the other website’s own privacy policy applies. We do not control and are not responsible for how those websites handle your data.

Children

This site is a general travel guide to Vande Bharat trains and is not aimed at children. We do not knowingly collect any information from children; as described above, we collect almost no information from anyone.

Your rights

Because we hold no accounts and no profiles, the only personal information we may hold about you is an email you have sent us. You can ask us to tell you whether we hold any email from you, to correct it or to delete it, by writing to [email address coming soon]. India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 also gives you rights over your personal data; we aim to respect them in the simple way described on this page.

Security

The site serves static pages and has no user database, so there is no stored account information to protect or to lose. Emails are kept in our mailbox and are not published.

Changes to this policy

If we change how this site handles information, for example by adding analytics to understand which Vande Bharat train pages are most useful, we will update this page before the change takes effect and change the “Last updated” date above. Significant changes will also be noted on Updates.

Questions

If you have a question about this privacy policy or how this Vande Bharat Express guide handles information, email [email address coming soon]. You can also read about this guide, our editorial policy and the Contact page.
