What is the purpose of NYprof.com?
NYprof.com is a catalog website designed to gather and organize important and useful information about licensed and certified professionals, as well as business entities in the state of New York, specifically New York City.
Our goal is to provide an easy-to-use online service for finding this information, while also allowing users to leave reviews or comments about their experiences.
Why do I see information about myself or my business on this website?
This means that official U.S. government agencies have deemed this information publicly relevant and have published it as Open Data on specialized platforms. Such information is included in aggregated datasets.
We work with resources like data.ny.gov, but we may also use other open and official sources.
What is Open Data?
Open Data refers to information that is publicly accessible, machine-readable, and structured according to consistent technical standards, making it easy to discover and reuse. This type of data can be used by the public, educators, businesses, researchers, journalists, developers, and government organizations to analyze trends, process information, and drive innovation—either by using individual datasets or combining multiple ones.
Can I modify or delete my information?
The dataset is processed and published as-is. The information about you in the open dataset cannot be directly modified or deleted by us, as we are not the source of the data. We only process and publish this information. If the data contains errors or inaccuracies, please contact the original data source to request corrections. The primary source is referenced under the title on each page utilizing Open Data.
Can I add additional information about myself on this website?
At this time, we are developing this functionality. We are open to your commercial proposals.
