From time to time we receive requests to hide a foundation. We also read this mail and answer it carefully. But with what answer?
As a rule, we see no reason – because there is a legal basis for the publication of commercial register data. Incidentally, this is also the response of our competitor in the market, with whose management we also discuss such requests.
Nevertheless, we try to offer a helping hand. In most cases, the aim is to supplement the organization’s profile with key information. For example: We do not accept applications.
In exceptional cases, an organization will be hidden on our platform. We do this on sight and without any legal basis for doing so.
How do you proceed if you want to suppress an entry?
We need the following information from you:
If you do not have a login with us and are authenticated as an organization representative: Proof of your authorization to act on behalf of the foundation.
The exact reason for your request for deletion. Are you in liquidation, have you used up your funds? Please describe why you do not wish to be visible.
A telephone number and e-mail address for queries. Anonymous requests or anonymous callers will of course not be considered.
In the vast majority of cases, we see no comprehensible reason to respond to these requests. Sometimes, for example when a foundation is in liquidation and the responsible authority has not yet recorded this, we support those responsible by making them temporarily invisible.
