What we collect

When you verify a business or contact us, we collect what you enter: your name, email, mobile number, and message. Business listings use public Google data, plus anything an owner adds to their profile. If you buy a featured listing, Stripe handles the payment, and we never see your card number. You can search and read the guide without giving us anything.

We use Google's tools to see how people use the site, such as which pages they visit. These tools may set cookies.

How we use it

We use your details to review requests, confirm who owns a business, answer your questions, and help you complete your profile.

Text messages

If you agree to texts on a form, we may text you about your listing or profile. Agreeing is optional, and you can verify a business without it. Message frequency varies, and message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to any text to opt out, or HELP for help.

Who we share it with

We don't sell your information. We don't share mobile numbers or text consent with anyone for their marketing. The companies that run our forms, messaging, payments, analytics, and hosting, GoHighLevel, Stripe, Google, and Vercel, handle your details only so these services work.

Your choices

To see, correct, or delete your information, or to correct or remove a business listing, contact us.
