Organizations

Organizations represent the employer on which the user is acting on behalf of.

An organization may be comprised of multiple legal entities distributed geographically, e.g. headquarters located in Geneva plus a branch office located in Berlin.

Every organization (organizational unit) can be verified legally if requested.

Additionally, every organization can provide their self-assessment using the data.org data maturity assessment tool.

These type of verifications/assessments help data-providers to feel more confident that the data they share is in responsible hands.
