Trust & verification methodology
Carenary is built for families making high-stakes care decisions. This page explains what our trust labels mean and how listing updates are reviewed.
Listing labels
- Verified Listing: key listing fields were reviewed against public/official sources.
- Claimed: a provider representative submitted proof and ownership was approved.
- Last confirmed: the most recent date Carenary reviewed core listing fields.
How data is reviewed
- Initial provider records are collected from trusted public sources and ingestion pipelines.
- Records are normalized, deduplicated, and held for moderation review before publication.
- Claims and corrections are manually reviewed before public listing updates are applied.
- High-impact fields (name, category, location, phone, website) are prioritized for re-checking.
What paid placement does not change
Paid or featured placement never changes factual verification decisions. Verification status, correction outcomes, and trust labels are based on evidence and moderation review only.
