GDPR & European Data Protection
Last Updated: August 2026
Digital Book of India is operated by DIGITAL BOOK OF INDIA PRIVATE LIMITED, an India-based company providing a digital business directory and related services primarily to users and businesses in India.
At present, DBI does not target or provide registration services to users outside India.
However, if the General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") or another applicable data-protection law applies to a particular individual or processing activity, we will handle personal information in accordance with the requirements applicable to that processing.
1. What Information May Be Covered?
Depending on how you use DBI, this may include:
- name;
- email address;
- mobile number;
- account information;
- business information;
- location information;
- IP address and device information;
- reviews and other content you submit;
- payment-related information;
- identity and verification information; and
- information collected through cookies and analytics technologies.
2. Why Do We Process Personal Information?
Depending on the circumstances, information may be processed to:
- create and manage accounts;
- provide DBI services;
- create and manage business listings;
- verify business identity;
- process payments;
- provide location and map features;
- communicate with users;

3. Your GDPR Rights
Where the GDPR applies, you may have rights including:

These rights are subject to the conditions and exceptions provided under applicable law.
The GDPR can apply to organizations outside the EU/EEA in certain circumstances, including where their processing activities are connected with offering goods or services to individuals in the EU/EEA or monitoring their behavior there.
4. How to Make a Request
If you believe the GDPR applies to you and you wish to exercise a data-protection right, please contact us at:

Please include enough information for us to understand your request. We may ask for reasonable information to verify your identity.
5. International Processing
DBI is based in India.
Where third-party service providers are involved in providing our services, information may be processed by those providers in accordance with their applicable terms and privacy practices.
Where applicable law requires additional safeguards for international data transfers, appropriate measures will be considered and implemented as required.
6. No Unqualified "GDPR Certification"
This page is intended to explain DBI's approach to European data protection. It should not be understood as a representation that DBI has obtained any GDPR certification or that GDPR applies to every DBI user or every processing activity.
7. Changes
We may update this page when our services, data-processing practices or applicable laws change.
