Data Removal

What business data we hold, why, and how to have it removed

Last updated: July 2026

LocalData maintains a database of publicly listed business information for Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia. This page explains what we hold, why we hold it, and how to have a listing removed. Where a listing belongs to a sole trader, it also serves as the transparency notice required by Article 14 of the GDPR.

1. What we hold

Publicly available business information: business name, address, listed phone number and email address, website address, review counts and ratings, and our own assessments of website quality. This information is collected from public sources, including Google Maps listings and the businesses’ own websites, for businesses in Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia.

2. Legal basis and Article 14 notice

We process this information under our legitimate interest (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f)) in providing business-to-business market intelligence. Where a listing belongs to a sole trader, the information may qualify as personal data, and this page serves as the GDPR Art. 14 transparency notice for it:

  • Categories of data: the publicly listed business information described in section 1.
  • Source:public sources, including Google Maps listings and the business’s own website.
  • Purpose: providing B2B market intelligence.
  • Recipients: our subscribing users.
  • Retention: while the listing remains publicly listed.

3. Your rights

You can object to the processing of your listing (Art. 21), request its erasure (Art. 17), request correction of inaccurate data (Art. 16), or request access to what we hold about it (Art. 15). Email support@localdata.so with the business name and city. We action removal requests within 30 days and confirm by reply. Removed businesses are excluded from future collection.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority — in Lithuania the State Data Protection Inspectorate (vdai.lrv.lt), in Estonia the Data Protection Inspectorate (aki.ee), in Latvia the Data State Inspectorate (dvi.gov.lv).
