<h2>Frequently Asked Questions</h2>

<p className="text-muted">Everything you need to know about our services and APIs</p>

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="What is the difference between the Capture & Verify services?">
    Capture is a user-present address capture service, designed to ensure accuracy and standardization at the point of entry by guiding users to select validated addresses in real time. In contrast, Verify is a data cleansing service that processes and corrects address data already held within a system, ensuring it conforms to postal and formatting standards. Verify can operate in both user-present scenarios e.g. validating input within a form and non-user-present contexts e.g. bulk cleansing of existing datasets or automated background validation.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What are the rate limits and how do you handle scaling?">
    Our APIs are designed to handle high-volume requests with automatic scaling. Rate limits vary by plan, starting from 1,000 requests per month on our free tier to unlimited requests on enterprise plans.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="How do you ensure data privacy and GDPR compliance?">
    We are fully GDPR compliant and follow strict data privacy standards. We use 256-bit encryption, implement zero data retention policies, and provide data processing agreements for enterprise customers.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Which countries and address formats do you support?">
    We support 245+ countries and territories worldwide with comprehensive address format coverage including postal codes, administrative areas, and locality information.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Do you provide webhooks for bulk processing and status updates?">
    Yes, we provide webhook support for bulk processing operations and real-time status updates. You can configure webhooks to receive notifications when bulk jobs complete or encounter errors.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="How accurate is the validation and what's your error handling?">
    Our validation accuracy exceeds 99% for most countries. We provide detailed error codes and messages to help you handle edge cases and provide meaningful feedback to your users.
