Website Disclaimer

SkyscrapersInfo is an independent international media and research platform providing editorial, research, architectural, geographical and general informational content about skyscrapers, tall buildings, architectural developments, rankings, skyline viewpoints, building databases and related subjects.

This Disclaimer primarily concerns publicly accessible website content. It is not a substitute for, and does not automatically override, the terms of any independently agreed contract that a reader or user may enter into with the operator or with a third party.

Where the operator offers separately contracted commercial, advisory or professional services, those services are governed by their own contractual terms and applicable law rather than by this Disclaimer. In the event of any conflict between such a specific contract and this document, the specific contract prevails — but only in respect of the services it actually covers, and only to the extent permitted by applicable law and the mandatory rights of the parties.

Reasonable efforts are made to keep information accurate and current. However, errors, omissions, outdated material and conflicting sources can occur. Information may change after publication without immediate update on the website.

Publication dates, last-verification dates and the dates of the events described are distinct and should not be confused. The website does not guarantee real-time verification, permanent accuracy or continuous monitoring of all projects, sources or referenced data.

Not every existing article or database record has necessarily undergone independent verification. Material on this website should be read as a snapshot of publicly available information at the time indicated, not as a continuously maintained authoritative record.

Architectural measurements are subject to dispute. Building height, number of floors, building counts, construction classifications, rankings and geographic boundaries may vary between sources. Antennas, spires, mechanical equipment, roof structures and podium levels are measured differently depending on the methodology used.

Calculations and inclusion criteria depend on the methodology identified in the relevant editorial material. Rankings may differ between sources because of differing methodology, reference dates, city boundaries and completion status. A higher or lower ranking in one publication is not, by itself, evidence of error elsewhere.

The methodology used by SkyscrapersInfo is set out in our Editorial Policy. Independent third-party references, including the Council on Vertical Urbanism (CVU, formerly CTBUH) and The Skyscraper Center, are recognised when relevant. Their inclusion does not imply endorsement, affiliation or permission to reproduce protected databases, trademarks or copyrighted compilations.

Planned construction, design height, developer announcements, start dates, project financing and expected completion dates can change substantially. Confirmed facts should be distinguished from forecasts, developer statements, renderings and speculative reporting.

A rendering or an official statement from a developer may confirm that a project has been announced, presented or described, but it is not, by itself, independent evidence that the project is approved, financed, permitted or actively under construction, nor that every design, height, programmatic or schedule characteristic described will be realised as illustrated or stated. Design changes, financing withdrawals, regulatory decisions and ownership transfers may occur at any stage before completion.

A projected completion date is not a guarantee. Where the distinction matters for travel, journalism, research, investment or planning purposes, readers should consult current official project information published by the developer, the local planning authority or the project team.

Map accuracy, geographical coordinates, public transportation details, building entrances, opening hours and walking routes may be limited or inaccurate. Construction works, security arrangements, ownership changes and seasonal variations affect the real world in ways that maps cannot reflect in real time.

The website does not guarantee that every displayed route or location is currently available, accessible, safe or legally open to the public. Third-party map providers maintain separate terms, licensing conditions and technical limitations that may affect what is shown.

Map content is not a real-time navigation service and is not an emergency or rescue service. It should not be relied upon where personal safety, legal access or time-critical decision making is involved.

Visiting skyscrapers, rooftops, observation decks, tall-building construction sites and surrounding areas involves inherent risk. The presence of a viewpoint, a recommended vantage point or a described skyline view on this website is not a representation that visitors have permission to enter the site, the building or any controlled area.

Building access rules, security arrangements, fire safety conditions, weather restrictions, ticket availability, accessibility provisions and photography restrictions may change without notice. Readers should follow official instructions issued by the building operator, the local authority and any on-site staff.

Do not trespass, bypass security, attempt unauthorised rooftop access or enter construction sites. Local laws concerning trespass, public order and safety apply regardless of any information published on this website.

Nothing in this section is intended to exclude liability that cannot lawfully be excluded for death or personal injury caused by the operator's negligence, or to restrict any other liability that applicable law does not permit to be excluded or restricted.

Filming, photography, drone operations, aerial recording, security-sensitive facilities, privately controlled premises and commercial production are subject to local restrictions that change by jurisdiction. The depiction or description of a location on this website is not permission to fly a drone, access restricted space or conduct commercial filming at that location.

Permit requirements, aviation rules, privacy obligations, intellectual property rights and local security laws differ by country, city and site. National aviation authorities, property owners, security services and local police may each impose their own conditions.

SkyscrapersInfo does not grant, and cannot grant, permissions controlled by government authorities, property owners, airspace regulators or other third parties. Obtaining the necessary authorisations is the responsibility of the person conducting the activity.

Descriptions of transport routes, border crossings, visa requirements, public-access rules and travel logistics, where included for context about a skyscraper or location, are general reference information. They are not professional immigration, customs or travel advice.

Requirements can change with little notice. Routes may be suspended, schedules may be revised, visa rules may change, and security conditions may alter without warning. Readers should verify relevant regulations with competent authorities, embassies, consulates and transport operators before relying on this information for travel or entry decisions.

This website does not, by itself, constitute a regulated travel, immigration, customs or transport service. Where SkyscrapersInfo later undertakes any such activity as a separately agreed engagement, that activity will be subject to the licences, authorisations or registrations required in the relevant jurisdiction and to the terms of the specific agreement.

References to property values, developers, rental rates, yields, commercial districts, economic conditions, project financing or urban investment are provided for editorial and informational purposes. Such content is not a personal investment recommendation, securities research, financial advisory service, real-estate brokerage recommendation or guarantee of investment performance.

Historical figures, announced investments and forecasts should be distinguished from audited or independently verified outcomes. Market conditions, currency movements and local regulation can substantially alter outcomes between announcement and completion.

This provision does not restrict mandatory consumer or investor protections. If SkyscrapersInfo later offers separately contracted consulting or commercial services, those services will be governed by their actual contractual terms and applicable law.

Information concerning structural systems, design, construction materials, building safety, regulations, seismic engineering, wind engineering and architectural measurements is not a substitute for professional engineering, architectural or surveying advice.

General explanations on this website are not certified technical assessments, construction instructions, safety certifications or regulatory approvals. The editorial information published here is not, by itself, a basis for architectural design approval, construction work or other safety-critical decisions.

SkyscrapersInfo does not claim technical credentials, certification authority, government approval or professional licences that it does not hold. Where professional input is required, a suitably qualified adviser should be engaged.

SkyscrapersInfo may link to or cite independent external websites, data providers, architectural firms, mapping services, news sources, media platforms and public authorities. A link or citation does not automatically constitute endorsement, partnership, sponsorship or responsibility for all external content.

External websites may change their information, access requirements, terms and conditions, privacy practices and availability without notice. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the operator of this website does not control, and is not responsible for, material hosted on external resources once a reader leaves SkyscrapersInfo.

This Disclaimer does not, however, allow SkyscrapersInfo to disclaim responsibility for its own misleading descriptions, advertisements or commercial representations made on this website.

Editorial content distinguishes documentary photography from architectural renderings, conceptual illustrations, manipulated images and AI-generated media. This labelling reflects the editorial standard applied to new and revised material; not every item in the existing archive has necessarily been re-examined and re-marked under the same standard. An image may illustrate a building, project or skyline without providing a complete or current representation of its physical condition, surroundings or appearance.

A rendering of a proposed skyscraper does not establish that the project has been approved, financed or built. AI-assisted content is subject to the publication's editorial standards, but AI output is not automatically treated as independently verified evidence of any factual claim.

Images supplied through third-party image services are not automatically licensed for commercial reuse. This Disclaimer is not a substitute for obtaining appropriate copyright, trademark or personality permissions before reproducing material. See our Copyright information and our Editorial Policy for further detail.

Independent editorial information is separate from paid advertising, sponsorships, partner content and separately contracted services. Where commercial content appears, it should be identifiable as such within the editorial context.

Commercial offers must be accurately described and are not shielded from applicable consumer protection legislation merely by this Disclaimer. Descriptions of fees, deliverables, partners and customer programmes reflect what is actually offered at the time of publication and may be revised.

The content of any commercial offer — including its scope, pricing, features, eligibility and conditions — is determined by the relevant published offer, the corresponding commercial terms and any separately concluded agreement, not by this Disclaimer. Where advertising, sponsored or partner content appears, it should be clearly identifiable as such within the editorial context. Nothing in this section restricts mandatory consumer protection, including applicable provisions of the Trade Descriptions Ordinance (Cap. 362), in respect of any commercial statement made on this website.

Service interruptions, scheduled maintenance, caching delays, outdated pages, browser compatibility issues, technical defects and occasional malfunction of interactive maps, embedded media and other components may occur. Continuous or error-free access is not guaranteed.

The site is not represented as perfectly secure, completely free of malicious content or as having deployed specific technical protections beyond what is reasonably implemented and disclosed. No internet publication can eliminate all technical or security risks.

Technical failures or security incidents are not automatically attributed to the user. Privacy, personal-data handling and cookies are addressed in their respective policies and not in an improvised notice within this Disclaimer.

The following provisions describe the limits of the operator's responsibility in respect of the publicly accessible editorial content of this website.

1. No guarantee of absolute accuracy, completeness or timeliness. All editorial material is published for general information only. Reasonable efforts are made to keep it accurate and current, but absolute accuracy, completeness or continuing timeliness is not guaranteed. Where a decision of legal, financial, safety, planning, professional or operational significance may turn on the information shown, readers should obtain independent verification before relying on it.

2. No guarantee of continuous technical availability. Continuous, uninterrupted or error-free access to the website is not guaranteed, to the extent permitted by applicable law. Service interruptions, scheduled maintenance, caching effects, outdated cached pages and occasional malfunction of interactive components may occur.

3. Reliance on outdated material and the reader's own decisions. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the operator is not liable for losses, damages or inconvenience arising from a reader's reliance on material that has become outdated, incomplete or subsequently superseded, or from decisions taken on the basis of editorial content without seeking appropriate professional advice. This provision does not affect any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or restricted.

4. Mandatory rights and non-excludable liability. The following safeguard applies in full:

The operator observes the principles of Hong Kong's Control of Exemption Clauses Ordinance (Cap. 71), including its provisions on the exclusion of liability for negligence and the requirement of reasonableness, as well as applicable mandatory consumer protection rules, including relevant provisions of the Trade Descriptions Ordinance (Cap. 362) and the Unconscionable Contracts Ordinance (Cap. 458). Where users access the website from outside Hong Kong, other mandatory legal protections may apply and will be observed to the extent required.

5. Separately contracted services. Where SkyscrapersInfo enters into a separate agreement for paid services, advisory work, content licensing, research products or other commercial arrangements, the rights and obligations of the parties in respect of those services are governed by the specific contract and by applicable law, not by this Disclaimer.

This Disclaimer does not, and is not intended to, confer complete legal immunity on the operator. Nothing on this website should be read as an attempt to exclude or restrict any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or restricted, or as creating a contractual relationship solely by virtue of a user accessing the website.

Editorial inaccuracies. The Contact page provides general company and contact-status information. Its online enquiry form is not currently accepting submissions, and the page must not be treated as an operational editorial-corrections channel. The operator's editorial standards are described in the Editorial Policy. No fixed response or correction deadline is promised by this Disclaimer.

Copyright complaints. The Copyright Notice & Takedown page describes the operator's Draft copyright-complaints framework and the distinction between informal concerns and applicable statutory notices. Publication of that page does not establish that a dedicated copyright-notice receiving channel is operational or that the operator qualifies for any statutory limitation of liability. Applicable legal rights and available remedies remain unaffected.

Other communications. Safety concerns, regulatory matters and formal legal notices are distinct from editorial corrections and copyright complaints. The operator does not represent that a dedicated online receiving mechanism exists for every category. Applicable methods of service, reporting obligations and other legal requirements remain governed by the relevant law.

Document updates. This Disclaimer may be reviewed and amended as laws, regulatory expectations and publishing practices change. Substantive revisions will be identified through the document's version and status information. Public availability of this Draft does not itself constitute formal operator approval or establish a contractual effective date. Nothing in this Disclaimer changes any deadline, obligation or right imposed by applicable law.
