Added my comments on the hackpad. Agree with Dev about the use of insignia,seals etc. There isn't a clear reason why this should be forbidden as long as the seals are published along with the dataset it should be ok Also on Gora's point, non-exclusive should not preclude commercial use of data.
With respect to information containing identity it is more tricky. My initial thoughts were I don't think we can completely argue for no exemptions, without giving a clear reason why not. Because we have to ensure personally identifying information is kept out. Since this license applies to non-digital data as well, its scope is much wider than data.gov.in. People may be given documents by government offices where a person' identity is difficult to obscure. In this case even I would support that the user who has obtained this data shouldn't publish it openly, but he should have the right to access, use, adapt the data. The only place I can imagine where personally identifying information is vital is if someone is gathering information that could criminally incriminate someone. In this case I honestly don't know what is appropriate because publishing identity is vital to exposing the crime.
