How We Verify Our Compliance Data
Compliance data is only useful if it's current and verified. Here is exactly how our weekly review process works.
1. Where Our Data Comes From
Every data point in Regulens traces to an official government source: state revenue departments, attorneys general, or enacted statutes. We do not use third-party summaries as primary sources.
2. Our Weekly Review Process
Our team checks the 8 official government URLs in our Methodology for any regulatory updates.
If a change is detected, the affected jurisdiction is immediately disabled in our system and a yellow status appears in your dashboard.
The updated statute or guidance is read in full and cross-checked against the official source. We do not rely on third-party summaries.
The database is updated and LastVerifiedDate is refreshed across every relevant record.
'Under Legal Review' is cleared. Affected users are notified in their next compliance digest.
3. Data Freshness Display
Every report you receive shows the exact date each data point was last verified and when we next review it. You always know how current your information is.
4. What Happens When a Law Changes
If a state passes new legislation, we immediately disable that jurisdiction in our system and display an Under Legal Review notice until we can verify the new requirements against the official source. Disabled jurisdictions are excluded from score calculations to prevent stale data from affecting your audit.
