Listing criteria
Who the directory is for.
Orthodox Business Network lists owner-submitted businesses that are owned or represented by members of the Orthodox Christian community.
Business information
The submission should accurately describe a real, currently operating business and provide enough public information for people to understand what it offers.
Orthodox affiliation
Submitters provide the parish they attend, its city and country, and the name of their priest. These details remain private and are used only for eligibility review.
Possible verification
Orthodox Business Network may occasionally contact the named parish or priest to confirm that the submitter is part of the Orthodox Christian community. Consent to this possible contact is required.
Publication
Listings remain pending until approved. We may request corrections, reject an ineligible or unsuitable submission, edit obvious errors, or remove a listing that is no longer accurate.
Eligibility is not endorsement
Review is limited to eligibility for this directory. Inclusion does not endorse or guarantee the quality, reputation, products, services, conduct, or theological views of a business.
Detailed theological or jurisdictional edge-case rules have not yet been defined. Those cases will be handled conservatively and documented before they become general policy.
