New Contractor Licenses

Methodology

Each run reads an official file or API. A second run updates the same record and does not open a second page.

Processing

The importer stores the raw response apart from the public row. A page exists when the name, the portal, the date and a stable source id are present.

The extract is read when a new file is published. Qualified businesses are kept. Personal licenses are not.

Left out of reports and the widget

The monthly report and the embed widget do not include names of natural persons, street addresses, telephone numbers, email addresses or IP addresses.

They keep counts: day, city, region and legal form.

Pages name a qualified business. A name without a legal form is not used as the heading. Street addresses are not shown.
