About Verified Handles
Verified Handles is a free, public directory of the official, verified social-media handles and online identifiers of notable people and organisations.
Why it exists
Impersonation is everywhere. Verified Handles gives you one trustworthy place to confirm that an account is genuinely operated by the person or organisation it claims to be. Each entry gathers an entity’s authentic handles across platforms, checked by our team, so you can follow, cite, or contact the real account with confidence.
How entries are built
Entries are curated from public sources, kept current with Wikidata, and reviewed by the Verified Handles team. The people and organisations we list can claim their entry to manage it directly, and anyone can suggest a correction.
Open and free
The directory is open data, released into the public domain under CC0. You’re welcome to read it, link to a handle, or build on it.
