How the checks run
Verification is automatic. When a manufacturer saves their company profile, we check the website and email address they provided - there is nothing to install, no DNS records to add, and no documents to upload. Results are stored on the profile and can be re-run at any time from the dashboard.
Each public manufacturer profile lists exactly which attributes were confirmed, so anyone can see what a badge is based on rather than relying on a checkmark alone.
What verification does not mean
Verification confirms specific account and company attributes checked by Identification ID. It is not government certification, product safety approval, or a guarantee of product authenticity or quality.
- •It is not a government, tax, or regulatory certification.
- •It is not a product safety, quality, or compliance certification.
- •It does not guarantee that any individual physical item is authentic.
- •It does not constitute an endorsement of the company or its products.
Reporting a problem
If you believe a manufacturer profile is inaccurate or misrepresents a company, contact us at support@identificationid.com. We review reports and can suspend a profile from the public registry.
Verification is operated by Global Product Identification Inc. as part of the Identification ID registry. Levels and checks may be updated as the registry evolves.
