Privacy
- Street addresses and postal codes are never exported:
addr_line_1,addr_line_2,addr_line_3andpostal_codeare dropped. The API has no contact names, emails or phones. - Names that look like individuals are blanked by a rule-based filter, not by a full check. A company name with no legal-form or business words is treated as a person if it matches one of these patterns: one person ("J. POHLER", "DR. JOHN SMITH"), two people joined by & or AND, or SURNAME (GIVEN NAME). For those,
companyNameandcityare set to null andcompanyNameWithheldto true; region and country stay. On the Oct 16, 2026 data this affected 1 of 7,677 companies. Bare acronyms (e.g. "GN OTOMETRICS") and names with business words are kept, so a sole proprietor trading under a personal name plus a business word ("JOHN SMITH MEDICAL") is shown. - QA check (Oct 19, 2026): a random sample of 441 distinct company names from a full run had 0 personal names (0%). Some firms are named after their founders (e.g. a surname plus "Medizintechnik GmbH"); these are businesses and are kept.
- The output is reduced, not anonymous: street addresses and postal codes are dropped, but company name, city, region and country remain and can point to a small business or its owner.
legalFormDetectedflags names that carry a legal-form word (Inc, Ltd, GmbH, SA, KFT, ...). About 88% do; the rest are kept as published.- Licence and device lists are not included in v0.1 (company records only).
