Privacy & data on Index
Index is a directory of architects, interior designers, urban planners, and allied practitioners, built by the team behind ArchitectureLive! and Unbuilt Ideas.
What we list, and why
For practices and individuals who have not yet claimed their listing, we publish business information — practice name, office address, website, and social media profiles — sourced from public professional activity such as authored articles on ArchitectureLive! or Unbuilt Ideas, or a practice's own public website. Every such listing names its source and the date it was captured.
We only publish a personal email address or phone number if the listed person or practice has submitted it themselves and explicitly marked it public from their dashboard. We never publish a scraped personal email or phone number.
Lawful basis
Business contact information for a professional practice is published in the legitimate interest of operating a professional directory. As an Indian company, we hold ourselves to India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP) as our baseline standard for every listing, wherever a practice is based. Any personal data beyond business information is published only with the affirmative consent of the person it belongs to.
Claiming a listing
If we've listed you, you can claim your profile via the link in our email, or edit any detail once you've claimed it. Claiming does not create a password — access is by one-time email link only.
Removal
Write to index@architecture.live to ask for a listing to be taken down. We honour removal requests promptly. Once removed, a listing's slug is reserved and will not be re-listed without the listed party's consent.
