India-first PII detection & redaction library

Project description

bharat-pii 🇮🇳

PyPI Python License CI

India-first PII detection & redaction library for GenAI pipelines.

bharat-pii helps detect and redact Indian-specific sensitive data (PAN, Aadhaar, UPI, IFSC, credit cards, etc.) before sending data to LLMs, logs, or analytics systems.

It is built with a regex-first, deterministic core and designed to be extensible with ML / Presidio adapters in the future.


✨ Features

  • 🇮🇳 India-first PII entities
  • ⚡ Fast & deterministic (regex + validation)
  • 🔒 Credit card detection with strict Luhn validation
  • 🔌 Extensible detector architecture
  • 🧱 LLM-safe (local by default)
  • 🧪 Fully testable
  • 📦 uv / PyPI friendly packaging

📌 Supported Entities

Entity Example
PAN ABCDE1234F
Aadhaar 2345 6789 0123
Indian Phone +91 9876543210
Credit Card 4111 1111 1111 1111
UPI ID rahul@upi
IFSC HDFC0001234

🛣️ Roadmap

Planned additions:

  • Email
  • Passport
  • Driving License
  • Entity severity & priority
  • Strict vs loose detection modes
  • Presidio (ML) adapter
  • CLI tool
  • PDF / OCR support

📦 Installation

Using pip:

pip install bharat-pii

Using uv:

uv pip install bharat-pii

🚀 Usage

Detect PII

from bharat_pii.api import detect

text = "Pay 500 to rahul@upi using card 4111 1111 1111 1111"
results = detect(text)
print(results)

Redact PII

from bharat_pii.api import redact

safe_text = redact("My IFSC is HDFC0001234 and Aadhaar is 2345 6789 0123")
print(safe_text)

Output:

My IFSC is ******1234 and Aadhaar is ********0123

🧠 Design Philosophy

  • Regex-first for precision and predictability
  • Validation where applicable (e.g. Luhn for cards)
  • Pluggable detector architecture
  • No cloud dependency
  • Minimal and stable API

Ideal for:

  • LLM pipelines
  • Fintech & healthcare systems
  • Logs & analytics
  • Internal tools
  • Compliance & PII redaction
