How businesses are verified.
A trained verifier checks that the business can be found and that its current activity matches the public profile. An administrator reviews the submitted findings before a verified date is published.
Verification records a presence and activity check. The verified date marks administrator approval of the findings. It is not a guarantee of service quality, licensing, creditworthiness, or future availability. Profiles leave public results when their verification expires or their status changes.
