What we verify

Ongoing background checks

Trustworthiness is more than the absence of malware. Fly-by-night operations share tell-tale signs: young domains, poor reputations, no privacy policy, nowhere to complain.

TrustedOrigin continuously checks the signals that separate an established business from a pop-up scam, and combines them into a background score your visitors can inspect item by item.

What this check covers

Domain history

Registration records establish how long the domain has existed. Scam sites are overwhelmingly young; longevity is evidence of a real track record.

Spam reputation

The domain and its server are checked against abuse and spam-reputation databases on every cycle, confirming they are not a source of junk or attacks.

Reviews and backups

Our team assesses public review platforms and the operator's backup policy, both strong indicators of a business that intends to be around.

Privacy signals

We check for a published privacy policy and a security.txt vulnerability-disclosure file, signs the business handles data and security responsibly.

What your visitors see

The verification panel shows a "Background Checks" certification with a combined score and an itemised table: domain age, spam reputation, review analysis, backups and privacy signals, each dated and scored.

Every result carries a date, so visitors can see the check is recent, and if a serious issue is ever found the badge is removed automatically until it is resolved.
