How we verify
Every entry has a source and a date.
As of 12.10.2026
An entry counts as checked only once its name, address and reachability have been checked against a named source and dated with the day of that check. What we cannot confirm reads as Not specified. We do not guess. Every detail carries its date.
Checked by hand, confirmed automatically, unverified
Every entry is one of three kinds. Checked by hand means a person checked the details against the KiTa's own website and at least one further source. Confirmed automatically means the core details agree across several independent sources, while the full check is still pending. Unverified means recorded with a source and a date, but not yet checked against a second source. Every card shows which of the three kinds applies. Today: 669 checked by hand, 160 confirmed automatically, 104 unverified.
What we check against what
| Detail | Check | Against |
|---|---|---|
| Name, address | when recorded and when reported | KiTa website, register |
| Phone, email, website | when recorded and when reported | KiTa website |
Automated extraction from public sources helps us capture entries. Unverified entries are marked as such, and every card states which kind of check stands behind it.
