As explained in the previous point, Qwant Maps uses several data sources to know the addresses and places.
To add or modify an address or a place, it is therefore necessary to modify this information in one of the sources used by Qwant Maps. The modification will then be automatically reflected on Qwant Maps.
It may take a few days for this modification to show up on Qwant Maps, depending on the type of data involved.
I wish to modify an address:

- Click on the “I know this business” or “This is my business” buttons to suggest a modification of the information
