What is an Information Only Profile?

See the application - Trust Matters.

An Information Only Profile is created and maintained by Safe and Trusted Canada using publicly available business information. It is provided to help consumers identify businesses that appear to offer applicable products or services.

An Information Only Profile does not mean that the business has created an account, approved the profile, purchased a Listing Plan or actively participates on Safe and Trusted Canada.

Information Only Profiles are displayed after Professional, Advanced, Standard, Plus and Basic Listings. Their placement provides consumer information only and does not represent accreditation, endorsement, validation, approval, ranking or a recommendation by Safe and Trusted Canada.

The profile may include the business name, general contact information, a business category, a City or Town Trade Area and other information obtained from identified public sources.

Business information can change. Consumers should confirm important details directly with the business.

An Information Only Profile does not include password-protected business account access, active profile management, direct links to multiple website pages, managed image or document uploads, YouTube links, Request eQuotes, Featured Business placement or Extended Visibility.

The business owner or an authorized representative may ask to claim the profile and select an available Listing Plan.

A Listing Plan provides account access and the features, presentation and visibility included with the selected plan.

The business owner or an authorized representative may request removal of an Information Only Profile at any time.

Safe and Trusted Canada may update, archive, hide or remove the profile when the business no longer operates, the information cannot be confirmed, or the profile is no longer useful to consumers.

Safe and Trusted Canada is a neutral advertising and consumer information platform. Safe and Trusted Canada does not accredit, validate, approve, endorse, rank or recommend any business.

Consumers remain responsible for reviewing the available information and choosing the business that best meets their needs.
