About Verified Handles

Verified Handles is a free, public directory of the official social-media handles and online identifiers of notable people and organisations, so that anyone can find the real account rather than an impersonator. Entries are listed from public sources, including Wikidata, and corrected by reviewers and by the people and organisations themselves; an entry with the Verified badge has been checked by the Verified Handles team. Founded in 2020, it is a non-profit service run and funded by JEM Media (JEM MEDIA LTD). Its data is open: public domain under CC0, except text taken from Wikipedia. verifiedhandles.org
