HOW TO REGISTER / POLICING THE SITE:

Organisations can register their own details by visiting the homepage and 
following the instructions. Each organisation is responsible for the details they 
enter. If the infoengine team is notified of concerns around inappropriate 
material or service provision then a member of the team has the right to hide 
the details in question from the public pending further investigation. 

IMAGES / PDF UPLOAD:

If an organisation chooses to upload an image or PDF document – this is 
sent to the team for authorisation prior to going live. The team reserves 
the right to delete any offensive or inappropriate material. Organisations are
urged to gain permission to publish images and the responsibility for this lies
with the organisation. 

TRANSLATION:

Organisations have the option to add details of their services bilingually but it 
is down to each organisation to translate their own information. 

UPDATING DETAILS:

Infoengine automatically refreshes itself – every 6 months the system sends
an email to the main contact for each organisation asking them to check and 
update their entry, if this contact doesn’t respond in approx. two weeks then 
the email is sent to another contact, if provided, and if this second contact 
doesn’t respond the Infoengine team is notified and aims to contact the 
organisation through other means to see if they are still operating. 

SAFEGUARDING:

Any provider of a service in which children under 8 years old are looked
after for a period of two hours or more must register with the Care and 
Social Services Inspectorate for Wales (CSSIW). To reduce the risk of parents 
accessing potentially inappropriate or unsafe childcare services Infoengine 
recognises search terms such as childcare, child-minder, nursery and will 
redirect people using these terms to the local Family Information Service which 
maintains its own database of registered providers.
