Some of this is required by law.
Some of this is necessary for you to make an informed decision regarding your use of our service.
For example, NeatAlerts (like the Official Gazette) procures directly from the State – the responsible federal or cantonal authorities – which, unfortunately, "does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness or timeliness of the information obtained" (our translation). This is why we cannot offer you more guarantees than those provided by the State.
To be fair, the State handles files provided by the cities who track changes and update each file, hence a time lag with the actual progress of projects and some unavoidable errors (especially when such processes are manual). But rest assured that our fully-automated system implements numerous measures to correct as many of these errors as possible.
In fact, we believe NeatAlerts offers the most reliable information and alerts, delivered in the most timely manner. And our customers keep telling us so.
