Scope of this privacy notice
This notice describes the application behavior of the current private Indianapolis Service Directory preview. It explains the difference between browsing public-facing business information inside this preview, saving a local shortlist, testing a form, and leaving the website through an external link. The preview is hosted through Sites with restricted access. Platform sign-in, access control and infrastructure processing are provided by the hosting platform and are governed by its own applicable policies. This application notice does not replace those platform policies or describe every technical operation of the hosting service.
Business information displayed by the directory
The website displays a selection of business records from the project master. These records can contain business names, recorded telephone numbers, websites, addresses, business types, category suggestions, ratings, review counts, opening hours, photographs and source attributes. These fields describe the recorded business listing rather than information entered by a visitor during browsing. A business contact may also identify an individual, particularly for a small business. The existence of a record in a discovery dataset is not proof that the business requested a listing, approved its contents or consented to an advertising relationship.
Search and filter information
Searching and filtering operate within the downloaded application data in your browser. Search text, selected category, recorded business ZIP and pagination settings can appear in the page URL so that the results state can be represented by a link. Avoid entering sensitive personal details, household access codes, financial information or medical information into a search box. Browser history can retain visited URLs, and anyone with access to that history may see the search parameters. Search by the business name, category or general service information rather than by confidential project details.
Comparison storage on your device
The comparison feature uses browser local storage to remember the identifiers of up to three selected businesses. This allows the shortlist to remain available when you move between listing results, profiles and the comparison page. The stored values are business record identifiers, not your name, address or contact information. The application does not need an account profile to operate this shortlist. Selecting Clear removes the active comparison selection through the interface. You can also clear the site's local storage through your browser settings. Browser restrictions may prevent persistence, in which case the current page can still provide a temporary selection.
Quote and claim previews
The request tool in this release prepares a message locally. Claim searches existing directory records, while Add Business explains that submissions are not open. Neither business page collects an application or ownership documents. They do not send the entered information to a provider, create a business claim, save a customer lead or collect payment. A preview is shown within the page to demonstrate the interaction. Copy request writes the prepared message to your device clipboard only when you choose that action; copying does not deliver it to a business. Reloading or leaving the page may discard that temporary state. Use fictional project information when testing the request tool, and do not rely on the preview as a way to request real work. A future live submission feature would need a real destination, appropriate controls and an updated explanation of collection, sharing and retention before it becomes available.
Phone, website and map links
Choosing a telephone link can open your device's calling application. A call then follows the behavior and policies of your device, network and the business you contact. Website and Google Maps links leave this directory and connect to services operated by others. Those services may process technical information or data you choose to provide. The directory does not control their forms, cookies, account systems or privacy notices. Review the destination and decide what information is necessary for your inquiry. You can ask about service scope before providing a precise address or other project information.
Photographs and application assets
Validated source listing photographs and available logos are packaged with the website so that visitor browsers do not need to hotlink the original photo URL for the displayed asset. Source identifiers and provenance are retained in the record. Other illustrations and editorial photographs have their own credits. Displaying a business photograph does not identify everyone pictured or authorize the directory to collect additional information about them. If a photo appears unrelated, outdated or inappropriate, identify the affected business and image when raising the issue through the existing project conversation. Do not send unnecessary personal information with a correction request.
Analytics, advertising and infrastructure
No third-party analytics or advertising script is installed by this directory application in the current release. This statement concerns the application code and does not assert that the hosting platform creates no access logs or operational records. Hosting and authentication systems can process requests to deliver assets, enforce access and operate the service. The directory does not provide a dashboard for those platform records or set a separate retention period for them here. If application analytics or advertising is added, this notice should identify the changed behavior before visitors are asked to rely on the revised service.
Accuracy, correction and visibility
Business details can become outdated and may have been collected before this website's current release. The source-read date is not a guarantee that the phone number, hours or photograph was checked on that date. A correction should identify the business record, the field and the proposed replacement, together with a suitable source when available. The current contact page does not provide a live intake endpoint; project participants can raise corrections in the existing project conversation. Do not assume that a form preview delivers a privacy request or starts a response deadline. A public service would require a clearly identified operator and working contact channel.
Your choices while using the preview
You can browse without building a shortlist, clear your local comparison selection, remove site data using browser controls, avoid external links, and use fictional values in preview forms. These choices affect the application features described here rather than the hosting platform's independent operations. Do not share the private access link as a substitute for changing the site's audience through its access controls. Before any public launch or live collection, the operator must review the actual collection paths and publish accurate contact and policy information. This notice is an explanation of current behavior, not a promise of features or data controls that have not been implemented.
