10. HOW OFTEN IS THE INFORMATION UPDATED?

Information displayed in BreedLOGIC Database Search is maintained by participating organisations and synchronised with source registry systems each day. New information is generally reflected following the next daily synchronisation, although update frequency may vary between organisations and data types.

11. WHO SHOULD I CONTACT ABOUT INCORRECT ANIMAL OR MEMBER INFORMATION?

If you believe an animal, member or registry record contains incorrect information, you should contact the relevant breed society or organisation directly. Examples include pedigree information, ownership details, registrations, transfers and member information. These records are maintained by the organisation rather than the BreedLOGIC support team.

BreedLOGIC Database Search can be linked to your existing Internet Solutions and/or ILROnline accounts to enable single sign-on access to Downloads and Online Registrations. Account linking can be initiated from either of these areas. Linked accounts can be viewed or managed through Account > Linked Accounts.

For more information refer to the Linking Accounts user guide.
