Wearing purdah

Q: Is there a specified age for a female to wear purdah? Is it ok for a female at the age of 50 to start doning the niqaab. What are the stipulated laws and requirements necessary to adhere and heed to when one is in niqaab? Did she sin for all the years by not wearing purdah even though she always wore hijaab. If it was a sin not wearing purdah how does she compensate for the sin? Is it permissible for a female in purdah to use public transport? Is it permissible for a female in purdah to walk on a public road. Does she have to wear gloves? I will be extremely grateful for your help as it is of profound importance.
