How does organization verification work? When adding the org domain, I get “pending verification” and no email is sent. ---

Hi @abdusahmbzuai. The verification is manual on our side. As you probably noticed since your message (sorry for the late reply), your organization was verified successfully and now has the “Verified” badge. ---

hey, @pierric We just noticed that our organization is registered by the others. How can we reclaim it? As they are using our logos and all the related information, I am wondering how the verification is passed. ---

Hi @nan, anyone can create an org on [hf.co](http://hf.co) and use the username/name they want for it. What the verification process does is adding a “Verified” badge testifying that the org is who they claim they are. In this case, I suppose you’re talking about [jina-ai (Jina AI)](https://huggingface.co/jina-ai). This org has not been verified by us and thus doesn’t have the verified badge. The different possibilities I see for you: - you can create a new org (like `hf.co/jinaai`) and ask for verification - we can also contact the owner of the org and ask them to transfer the ownership to you - ultimately, you can contact `legal[at]hugginface.co` if you think this org should be taken down (for instance for infringing on your IP, if it’s the case) ---

@pierric How do I get my organization account, [UKG (Ultimate Kronos Group)](https://huggingface.co/UKG), verified? ---

Hi @AaronzDev In the [account settings](https://huggingface.co/organizations/settings/account) of your org account, you can add a domain name under ‘Organization Domain name’ and your org will be verified if members have that same domain name in their email address. ---

How long does it take to check? Our company still on Pending verification step.
