How Listings Are Sourced & Managed

• Transparent Sources: Where available, each listing attributes its data source—whether provided directly by the business owner, an OpenStreetMap record, or a public entry. Business owners can claim their listing for free to update their details.
• Privacy First: We publish business contact details only. We never display the personal name, phone number, or email address of the individual who submitted or claimed the listing.
• Honest Data: Currently, 90% of Cape Town listings include trading hours. Where information is unverified, we leave it blank rather than guess.
• Easy Corrections: Every business page features a direct link to report errors or request removal.
