Business Verification Terms and Corrections Supplement
Last updated: 25 October 2026
1. Application
This supplement applies to the Business Verification Service provided by ALTA MONEY SERVICES LTD. (the “Company”), including public company search, limited sanctions name screening and public company-profile pages.
It supplements the Website Terms of Use and Privacy and Cookie Notice. The Website Terms continue to apply. This supplement prevails only for Business Verification matters.
2. Current service
Business Verification is a free public-information service. Search requests are processed through the Company’s same-origin search endpoints. Company searches are compared with server-held indexes prepared from the connected public sources identified on the Business Verification page. Names of individuals are screened only against connected public sanctions lists.
A source described as not connected, unavailable, unresolved or not activated is not searched for the request and cannot support a no-match conclusion. The service does not represent that every registry, sanctions list, identifier database or jurisdiction has been searched.
3. Public information only
Results may display permitted public fields such as legal name, jurisdiction, entity type or status, general location, identifiers, source and dates. Information may be incomplete, delayed, corrected by the source or limited to fields that may lawfully and appropriately be published.
A result is not:
- AML, KYB or sanctions clearance;
- an internal compliance or payment-service decision;
- legal, credit or investment advice;
- regulatory approval or endorsement;
- proof that an entity or person is safe, solvent, trustworthy or suitable; or
- a guarantee of identity, standing, completeness or counterparty risk.
Users should verify material facts directly with the cited official source and obtain appropriate professional advice before making a decision.
4. Search, matching and sources
A verified identifier may confirm a link between company records. A similarity based on a company or person name remains a possible match and must not, by itself, be used to merge entities or confirm identity. A displayed fact retains its identified source and the source date or retrieval date available to the Company.
A source link identifies the basis of a displayed field. It does not mean the Company controls or endorses the source, guarantees continuing availability, or guarantees that the source remains complete or current. A retrieval date shows when the Company obtained information; it does not prove that the source has not changed.
Search terms are not placed in public profile URLs or sitemaps and raw search terms are not sent to Google Analytics. The Privacy and Cookie Notice explains the information handled by the service.
5. Person-name boundary
The public service does not provide a public director, officer or beneficial-owner reverse-search service. A person-name-only search does not return company relationships. It is used only to identify a possible name match in a connected public sanctions list.
A possible sanctions name match is not identity confirmation, a sanctions determination or clearance. It requires review against the official source and any available identifiers. The service must not be used to monitor, profile or harass a person, or as the sole basis for an automated decision affecting employment, housing, credit, insurance or another significant interest.
6. Public/private boundary
The Business Verification Service does not publish private client files, identity documents, beneficial-ownership evidence, internal risk scores, monitoring alerts, case notes, payment records or confidential compliance decisions.
Use of a public result does not open a payment account, complete onboarding or authorize a payment service or transaction.
7. Permitted use
You may view and make reasonable internal use of public results. You must not:
- misrepresent a result as official clearance, approval or certification;
- remove source, date, limitation or correction information;
- systematically scrape, resell, republish or create a competing dataset from results without written permission, except as permitted by applicable law;
- merge records or identify a person solely from name similarity;
- use the service for fraud, harassment, unlawful discrimination, surveillance or misleading publication; or
- submit private client records, identity documents or unnecessary sensitive information through the correction channel.
8. Corrections
To request a correction, send an email to info@altamoneyservices.com with the subject “Business Verification Correction.” Include:
- the profile URL or sufficient information to locate the result;
- the disputed field;
- the reason it is said to be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated or inappropriate to display; and
- a link or reference to an official or reliable source supporting the request.
Do not send identity documents or other unnecessary sensitive information unless the Company requests a secure method for information reasonably required to verify the request.
The Company will review the request and may correct, update, qualify, temporarily remove or decline it according to the available evidence, applicable law and the scope of the source. The correction process is not automatic or immediate.
9. Availability and updates
The Company may update or withdraw a result when the source, entity status, publication basis, identity match, permitted use or legal requirements change.
The Company does not promise uninterrupted search, continuous source availability or comprehensive coverage of Canadian or international entities, persons or lists.
10. Complaints
Complaints may be sent to info@altamoneyservices.com with the subject “Business Verification Complaint.” Identify the affected result and issue without sending unnecessary sensitive information. Privacy requests are handled under the Privacy and Cookie Notice.
