Dun and Bradstreet Overview

dun and bradstreet logoFounded in 1841 by Lewis Tappan, Dun & Bradstreet is a global provider of business data

Today, D&B maintains detailed information on over 500 million businesses worldwide.

It exists to provide business intelligence, including credit reports and risk analysis, to help companies make informed decisions about other businesses.

D-U-N-S Number

A company’s D-U-N-S Number system assigns unique identifiers to businesses, helping you to verify if a business is legitimate and financially stable.

It’s used to evaluate suppliers, check creditworthiness, and reduce risk.

A company’s data often appears online—sometimes even without the business owner’s consent or knowledge.

While some companies benefit from this visibility, others find that the presence of their listing can lead to privacy issues or online reputation concerns.

Furthermore, D&B’s database feeds third-party platforms, such as MacroPolo, OneTrust and ProcessUnity, which are all niche business risk evaluation websites.

Thus, managing your Dun and Bradstreet listing is essential to keeping your company financials up to date.

Dun and Bradstreet and Your Online Reputation

While Dun & Bradstreet serves the B2B community, the data is public since it’s on the internet.

This creates a threat to your online reputation, espeically when your business listing includes personal addresses and/or incorrect financial data, which can cast your business in a negative light.

As aggregators pickup and publish your private or erroneous information, you’re left exposed online.

Below is a sampling of some of the places where your business information can appear:

  • D&B Hoovers
  • Databricks Marketplace
  • Dow Jones Risk & Compliance
  • Exact, Salesforce, SAP, Oracle, Microsoft
  • Google Cloud Marketplace (Analytics Hub)
  • LSEG (London Stock Exchange Group)
  • OneTrust
  • Panjiva (S&P Global)
  • Precisely’s Data Link Ecosystem
  • ProcessUnity
  • Relish (RelishIQ)
  • spektr

Even credit agencies can scrape and use your data.

You can probably see how misleading information in your Dun and Bradstreet company profile can quickly become a disaster online.

If the information is linked to a D-U-N-S number, you’ll need to file a formal request to update or delete the record.

Reasons Why Companies Want To Delete Their D&B Account

Business owners and company C-level executives come to us to delete their D&B Company Account and it’s usually for one or more of these reasons:

1 – Privacy – Their home address or personal contact details are linked to their business listing.

2 – Incorrect Information – They’ve tried to get D&B to correct contact info, official business name, or other details to no avail.

3 – Company Closure – This is rare, but we have had a few companies seek removal because they are out of business.

4 – Prevent Scraping – As mentioned above, unauthorized third parties may use your D&B data for all sorts of nefarious activities.

5 – Spam – Spammers grab your information and inundate you with texts, phone calls, and emails.

6 – They Want OUT – Some companies simply don’t want to be profiled by D&B.

We get you off the database promptly, so you can go about running your business without any of these threats.
