Terms of Service

By using the IAD website, including searching the register or submitting a listing application, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

IAD is an independent, non-profit public register. It lists certification bodies, accreditation bodies, and the organizations they certify against ISO management system standards.

IAD does not certify organizations or accredit certification bodies itself, and does not guarantee the ongoing accuracy of any listing beyond what was submitted and reviewed at the time of listing.

Searching the register and verifying a certificate ID is free and does not require an account. You may use search results for your own evaluation purposes, but may not scrape, republish, or resell register data in bulk without written permission.

Certification bodies and accreditation bodies that apply for listing must provide accurate information and agree to notify IAD of material changes, such as a change in accreditation status or certification scope.

IAD may review, suspend, or remove a listing if information is found to be inaccurate, outdated, or no longer meets the listing criteria published on the Membership page.

Listings reflect information provided by applicants and reviewed by IAD at the time of listing. IAD makes no warranty, express or implied, regarding the ongoing validity of any certificate or the performance of any listed organization.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, IAD is not liable for any loss or damage arising from reliance on information published on this site.

These terms may be updated from time to time. Continued use of the site after changes are published constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

Questions about these terms can be sent to info@iad-register.org.
