Data Sources, Corrections & Removal
1. Where our data comes from
Listings are mirrored from official provincial and federal public registers. We index only objective licensure fields and link back to the source register where possible.
2. Correction protocol
If a field on KYP differs from the official register, submit a correction ticket. We re-check the source register and update our node to match the official record, generally within 48 hours. KYP always defers to the regulator's record.
3. Removal on request
Unlike a public-interest index that refuses deletion, KYP honours removal requests. Any professional may have their KYP listing permanently removed, free of charge, whether or not they ever subscribed. This is a genuine opt-out, not a muting of notifications.
4. Our crawler
Our indexing bot identifies itself honestly, respects robots.txt, rate-limits requests, and runs off-peak. See our bot policy.
