Data Source and Interpretation:

The data in these dashboards is primarily sourced from the information entered by service providers and is updated regularly. It’s important to note that this data is self-reported and may be subject to errors or changes over time. While every effort is made to ensure accuracy, comprehensive data quality checks are not universally applied. Users should interpret the data with this in mind and consider it a reflection of current reports rather than absolute figures.

Qualifiers for Dashboards:

To maintain transparency, each dashboard includes qualifiers that outline the limitations of the data. These qualifiers are essential for understanding the context of the information and should be reviewed alongside the data to avoid misinterpretations.
