Known data-quality work

Definitions and limitations
- Inclusion comes from broad public business-listing sources; it is not an endorsement and some adjacent businesses may be present.
- A website count excludes URLs our probe recorded as dead. It does not guarantee the site works for every visitor today.
- An email count means an address has a plausible shape, not that delivery has succeeded.
- A registry match is dated evidence of a match, not a rating, recommendation or guarantee of current standing.
- Counts can change as firms claim listings, sources refresh, duplicates are reviewed and corrections are processed.
