    Bizapedia has my personal home address on file advertised on their company's website. I am a mental health provider and a medical provider, well known in my community, and this personal information puts me and my family's safety at risk should a disgruntled patient decide to do a quick internet search and finds my address. I have updated my information on my local secretary of state's (***) website over 1 year ago, however Bizapedia, whose website claims they use up-to-date business information through the *** site, has yet to update their records. I have made multiple attempts to contact Bizapedia, however they do not have a public customer service telephone number where they can be reached. Their website also makes it extremely difficult to get your business info changed. They require you fill in information regarding your business, including a company URL, however, their system keeps mentioning that my own company URL is incorrect. As a result, you are not able to submit a request to contact them to get your information changed or removed.I am requesting this issue be resolved immediately! As mentioned, this is a safety and privacy concern, both of which are being compromised and violated. I expect to hear back from Bizapedia or its affiliates ASAP or I will be forced to escalate the situation in hopes that this gets resolved.

    I work as a psychotherapist, and I was forced to put my home address when I formed my S Corporation. It is dangerous for psychotherapists to have their home addresses listed on the internet because we can get stalkers as part of the nature of the work working with people with mental health issues. They also make it possible for people to leave reviews, which is dangerous to therapists because it is easy for people to become upset in therapy, and due ot mental health condition attack the therapist online. I want my entire profile removed from the internet. However, the only option on the Bizapedia site, is the following "I would like to hide my trademark's private information from the general public. (i.e., Private information is limited to names of people and addresses). To do this you must give them a "Trademark Page URL." They state below give the following directions below: (Find your trademark via our trademark search page, and then copy and paste the url from your browser's location bar into the box below.) In order to get the "trademark page URL" you have to give them your information, which they doubtlessly sell, do a 7 day free trial, and if you don't cancel it, will result in a monthly charge of $99 for lots of useless information. I generated a fake account, and paid $5 to get the trademark URL so they can't sell my information. I then inputted it into the request. It was "submitted successfully" but the address is still visible. I tried to do it again with URL, and now it is saying that the trademark URL is not correct. I need them to remove my profile entirely. If that is impossible I need them to remove my address from their website. I know that it is public knowledge if you search me through the ********** Secretary of State, but most people wouldn't think of that. It is too out in the open here. Please assist.

    Complaint against Bizapedia, for their persistent refusal to remove our dissolved company's information from their platform.Despite our company having been dissolved and the explicit option provided by Bizapedia for the removal of information pertaining to dissolved, closed, or inactive entities, our requests have been systematically ignored. This raises serious concerns about Bizapedia's adherence to its own policies and ethical business practices.VIOLATION OF PROMISED POLICIES:Bizapedia clearly states on its platform that companies that are dissolved, closed, converted, or no longer active can request the removal of their information. Despite following their prescribed procedure, our dissolved company's information remains accessible on Bizapedia. This refusal constitutes a direct violation of their own policies and compromises the privacy and security of our company.EXTORTIONATE PRACTICES AND PRIVACY VIOLATION:We believe Bizapedia's actions can be construed as extortion, as they continue to publish our information despite clear evidence of our company's dissolution. This not only contradicts their promised policies but also represents a serious violation of our privacy rights.RESOLUTION:We request the Better Business Bureau's intervention in securing the immediate removal of our dissolved company's information from the Bizapedia website. Despite our repeated attempts to resolve this matter directly with Bizapedia, they have failed to cooperate.LEGAL ACTION:If the BBB's intervention does not yield a satisfactory resolution within a reasonable timeframe, we are prepared to pursue legal action against Bizapedia for damages, injunctive relief, and any other remedies available under the law.We seek the BBB's assistance in rectifying this situation promptly. Our company's rights and privacy have been unduly compromised, and we trust that the BBB will ensure Bizapedia complies with its own policies and rectifies this situation to prevent further harm.
