Yes—both filings are public.

- Form D: Filed on the SEC’s EDGAR; the notice is publicly viewable. Certain issuer information (including addresses) typically appears on the filing page.
- Form ADV (for Exempt Reporting Advisers and registered advisers): Filed via IARD and published on the SEC’s Investment Adviser Public Disclosure (IAPD) site. Business addresses are displayed; personal home addresses should be avoided—use your firm’s business/registered office.

Tip: Maintain a professional business or registered agent address to avoid listing a home address.

Yes, both Form D and Form ADV are public documents available on the SEC's website (via EDGAR for Form D and IAPD for Form ADV). 

For Form D, all provided addresses are fully public, even if it's a home address, as there's no redaction option for private residences. 

For Form ADV, the firm's business address is public.  However, if the box indicating an address is a private residence is checked, the SEC redacts it from the public version (though it could still be disclosed via FOIA requests).
