2GED Verified

Know who you're connecting with.

The verified indicator means one specific thing: 2GEDAPPS checked this organization's identity. Nothing more, and we say exactly what it doesn't mean.

What it means

  • 2GEDAPPS reviewed information showing this organization exists.
  • The person who applied was an authorized administrator of the organization at the time of review.
  • The official name and website shown were checked against the documents supplied.

What it does not mean

  • It is not an endorsement, recommendation or quality rating.
  • It is not accreditation, licensing or government approval.
  • It is not a compliance certification of any kind — including HIPAA, FERPA, SOC 2, ISO or GDPR.
  • It is not a guarantee of safety, conduct or financial standing.

How review works

  1. Step 1

    Request

    An owner or administrator submits the organization's legal name, official email, website and country.

  2. Step 2

    Documents

    Supporting documents are uploaded to private storage. Members of the organization never see them.

  3. Step 3

    Review

    A 2GEDAPPS reviewer examines the request. Organizations can never approve their own verification.

  4. Step 4

    Decision

    Verified, not approved, or more information required — always with a reason recorded.

Verification statuses

  • Unverified
  • Pending review
  • More information required
  • Verified
  • Not approved
  • Verification suspended
  • Verification revoked

Verification can be suspended or revoked — for example after a legal name change, a domain change or a credible impersonation report. Verification is never granted automatically for paying, for having a website, or for using an email address at a matching domain.

Something look wrong?

If an organization appears to be impersonating someone, report it. We review reports — we never accuse an organization automatically.
