CorporationWiki provides corporate transparency and historical data on companies in the United States. The website checks fraud and malice cases, ensuring that corporate executives are liable for the actions they take through their companies. It performs this function by verifying a company's name, function, and historical data to make sure that no entity hides behind a fictitious name without discovery. In addition to company searches, CorporationWiki offers a people search engine.
Most of the data on the platform is sourced from public records maintained by the Secretary of State or Department of State agencies. Company-related information disseminated by CorporationWiki includes employee information, history, addresses, business associates, colleagues, etc. As a result, people's information can appear on the website regarding companies where they were previously employed.
CorporationWiki primarily exists as a research tool for people who wish to find a corporation, its owners, services, and employees. However, it does not serve as a conduit for contacting individuals and companies profiled on the site. Additionally, unlike many data broker sites, CorporationWiki allows anyone to edit a profile.
As a "wiki" site, users can add, modify, or delete content. Thus, the available information may be inaccurate, misleading, or outdated. This can be damaging to an entity's reputation. Therefore, to ensure that users can protect their identities on the web, CorporationWiki allows people listed on the site to edit their profiles or opt-out from the service entirely.
How to Opt-Out of CorporationWiki
CorporationWiki does not recognize companies as people; therefore, it only provides individuals with the option of opting out of the service, not companies. Nevertheless, there is a limitation to this rule: if the company record was sourced from Dun & Bradstreet (D&B), the concerned entity could contact D&B directly for removal. Once the agency processes the request, it will reflect on CorporationWiki's database as well.
To be eligible for this exception, a company must confirm its profile source. This information is usually located at the bottom of a CorporationWiki profile page under "sources." If Dun & Bradstreet is stated as the only source, then the company's profile can be removed.
For individuals, the steps listed below should be followed to remove personal information from CorporationWiki:
- Visit corporationwiki.com and input a first and last name into the search box. Click "search" to find the profile to be removed.
- Upon finding the desired record, click on it and copy the profile URL located in the upper left corner.
- Visit https://www.corporationwiki.com/profiles/public and paste the URL into the appropriate field. Then, input a first name, last name, and email address, and click "I agree to the terms." to submit the request.
- Check for a confirmation email from CorporationWiki. Once received, click the embedded verification link in the email to confirm the opt-out request. If the message is not available in the inbox, check your spam folder. If the message cannot be found, whitelist corporationwiki.com and submit the opt-out request again.
In situations where difficulties arise from the opt-out procedure, requesters may contact the company for assistance:
CorporationWiki
127 West Fairbanks Avenue, Suite 335
Winter Park, FL 32789
Phone: (407) 259-2428
Because D&B shares its information with CorporationWiki, removing a profile from the D&B database also removes it from CorporationWiki.
As a business directory, D&B only exposes information on entities registered to home addresses. Any company or business looking to remove their addresses and personal information from Dun & Bradstreet must re-register the business through their state's Secretary of State office. Companies can register again using a commercial address or through a registered agent.
What Difficulties Exist when Opting Out of CorporationWiki
CorporationWiki obtains information from state agencies and Dun & Bradstreet (D&B). Dun & Bradstreet provides commercial data and analytics to businesses based in the United States. Hence, information aggregated by CorporationWiki is also available on the Dun & Bradstreet database and that of state agencies.
As such, if a person decides to opt out of CorporationWiki, their information may be removed from the website but will most likely be accessible on Dun & Bradstreet or through state agency websites and offices.
