Directory information
Correction, update or claim review.
A free route for business owners and visitors to report inaccurate Directory information.
A business owner, authorised representative or visitor may report inaccurate information. A business owner or authorised representative may request a claim review. Neither route requires the requester to purchase or enquire about an A.C.E Tailored service.
The requester should provide:
- the business name and profile URL;
- the correction, update or claim requested;
- their relationship to the business;
- a reliable public source or proportionate supporting evidence;
- safe reply contact details.
The Directory will:
- acknowledge and review the request as soon as reasonably practicable, without promising an unsupported public service level;
- verify authority from owner-controlled sources where possible;
- request only the minimum additional evidence reasonably necessary;
- correct supported inaccuracies;
- temporarily unpublish disputed material where continued display creates a material accuracy, impersonation, privacy or safety risk;
- treat competing claims as a human-review matter;
- keep private evidence and dispute narratives off public pages;
- record the request, evidence considered, decision, action and review/deletion date privately.
A claim request does not automatically transfer control of a page and is not automatic proof of ownership.
Closure and duplicate reports use the same route. A supported closure may result in correction, temporary unpublication or retirement. A supported duplicate report results in one canonical profile being retained.
