DACH Impressum Scraper — Emails, Phone, VAT & Directors

Turn a plain list of German, Austrian and Swiss company domains into complete, sellable B2B leads — scraped straight from each site's legally-mandated Impressum (legal notice). Paste your domains, get back a clean firmographic record per company.

What it does

Every commercial DE/AT/CH website must publish an Impressum (§5 TMG/DDG in Germany, §5 ECG in Austria, plus the Swiss disclosure rules). That page is a goldmine of structured company data. For each domain you give it, this Actor:

1. Fetches the homepage and discovers the Impressum / legal-notice link (no fragile URL guessing).
2. Fetches that page and extracts the firmographic fields with DACH-tuned parsers.
3. Returns one flat lead row — ready for your CRM, outreach tool or enrichment pipeline.

Why imprints are the cleanest EU lead source

Impressum pages are legally-required public disclosures — the company itself publishes its contact and registration details by law. That makes them the most GDPR-defensible starting point for EU B2B prospecting: no logins, no scraped private profiles, just statutory public data. And unlike a Maps listing, an imprint gives you the managing director, commercial-register entry and VAT ID — the fields that identify the actual legal entity.

Full DACH coverage

Most imprint scrapers are Germany-only. This one handles DE, AT and CH: it rotates residential IPs across the three countries, parses German-, Austrian- and Swiss-format phone numbers, and recognises DE, ATU and CHE VAT IDs plus HRB / HRA / FN / CHE register numbers.

Input

Field	What it is
Company domains or imprint URLs	One entry per company — bare domain (trigema.de), homepage URL, or a direct Impressum URL. One lead per domain.
Country	Auto (rotate & infer) or force DE / AT / CH.
Max results	Cap on leads this run. 0 = the whole list.
Proxy	RESIDENTIAL by default (rotates DACH countries, retries a fresh IP on any block).

Example:

{ "domains": ["trigema.de", "mymuesli.com", "example-gmbh.at"], "countryHint": "auto", "maxItems": 1000 }

Pricing

Pay per result. You are charged a single event only for each successfully parsed imprint (status: ok). Domains that are blocked, have no discoverable imprint, or error out are still returned so you can see them — but they are never charged.

Limits

• Bring your own domains. This is not a keyword-discovery tool — it does not find companies for you; it enriches the domain list you supply.
• Enterprise-WAF sites may block. A minority of large brands sit behind aggressive bot walls (Cloudflare captcha, 403). Those come back status: blocked and are not charged. SMB imprints — the target lead — are clean, plain HTML.
• Extraction is best-effort. Imprint layouts vary; a field the page doesn't publish comes back null. Email + at least one firmographic field (phone / VAT / register / director) is the norm for a clean SMB imprint.

Legal

This Actor reads only statutory public disclosures (Impressum / legal-notice pages that companies are legally required to publish). You are responsible for complying with each site's Terms of Service and with all applicable outreach/marketing law (GDPR, UWG, etc.) when contacting the leads.
