Your Privacy Rights

Last updated December 2025

Welcome to Business Directory Entities! We're committed to being transparent about how we handle information. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, why we collect it, and how we use it, all in plain English.

Our goal is to connect people with great local businesses. To do this, we mainly collect information related to businesses, not personal user data.

• Business Listing Information: When a business is listed on Business Directory Entities, we collect publicly available information or information provided directly by the business owner/representative. This can include business names, addresses, phone numbers, websites, service descriptions, operating hours, and photos. This information is intended to be publicly displayed on our directory.
• User Submissions: If you submit a review, rating, or suggestion, we collect the content of your submission. We may also collect your name (or chosen display name) and email address if provided, primarily for verification and communication regarding your submission. This information helps us maintain the quality and relevance of our directory.

We do not actively seek or collect sensitive personal information about individual users who browse our directory.

The information we collect serves a few key purposes:

• To operate and maintain the Business Directory Entities website and services.
• To display accurate and up-to-date business listings to our users.
• To improve the quality and relevance of our directory through user feedback and submissions.
• To communicate with you regarding your submissions or inquiries, if necessary.
• To detect and prevent fraudulent or inappropriate activity on our platform.

We do not sell, rent, or trade any personal user data to third parties. Business listing information, as intended for a public directory, is shared publicly on our website. User submissions (like reviews) may also be publicly displayed, typically alongside your chosen display name.

Like most websites, Business Directory Entities uses cookies – small text files stored on your device – to enhance your browsing experience. Cookies help us understand how our site is used, remember your preferences, and improve our services. You can control or refuse cookies through your browser settings, though some parts of our site may not function as intended if cookies are disabled.

If you are a business owner and wish to update or remove your listing, please contact us directly. If you have submitted content to Business Directory Entities and wish to inquire about or request its removal, please reach out to us.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. We will post any updates on this page with a revised "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.

If you have any questions or concerns about this Privacy Policy or our data practices, please don't hesitate to contact us through the methods provided on our website.
