How is voter privacy and ballot secrecy protected on JANMAT Digital?

JANMAT Digital utilizes salted HMAC-SHA256 privacy tokens. IP addresses and connection identifiers are hashed with a cryptographic salt; raw IPs and personal identifiers are never stored alongside ballot choices.

Can one person vote multiple times using incognito mode, multiple tabs, or bots?

No. The system enforces multi-signal validation combining browser tokens with server-side salted IP hashing, atomic mutex locking, and passive challenge heuristics to prevent duplicate voting.

Is JANMAT Digital affiliated with the Election Commission of India (ECI)?

No. JANMAT Digital is an independent civic-tech platform providing public opinion surveys and institutional election services for RWAs, cooperative societies, trade chambers, and universities. It is not affiliated with the statutory Election Commission of India.
