Business Address Use Policy

1. What you may use the address for

• Registering your business with state and federal agencies.
• Banking, payment-processor, and merchant-services applications.
• Tax authority correspondence (IRS, state DOR).
• Other lawful business compliance correspondence.

2. What you may NOT use the address for

• Marketing, advertising, directory listings, or social-media profiles.
• Google Business Profile, Yelp, Apple Maps, or any "visit us" listing.
• USPS Change-of-Address to forward personal or unrelated mail.
• Residency claims, driver's license, voter registration, or any personal-use registration.
• Illegal, fraudulent, sanctioned, or high-risk activities.
• Hazardous, regulated, or prohibited goods (firearms, controlled substances, perishables, currency, etc.).
• High-volume e-commerce returns, drop-shipping returns, or warehousing.

3. USPS Form 1583 is required

To receive USPS-delivered mail, you must complete a notarized USPS Form 1583 designating BusinessBaseHQ as your Commercial Mail Receiving Agency. We can't process USPS mail until that form is on file.

4. Mail limits and overages

Mail volume limits are set by your plan. Items above your allowance are billed at the per-item rate posted on the Pricing page. We may decline parcels exceeding size or weight limits.

5. Termination and mail disposition

We may terminate the address service immediately for any prohibited use, with no refund. After cancellation or termination we hold mail for up to 30 days, then shred it or return to sender. You're responsible for updating your address with every party before cancelling.

6. We are not liable for mail handling

We use commercially reasonable efforts to scan and forward mail accurately and on time, but we are not liable for delays, loss, damage, or misdelivery by USPS or any other carrier, or for any consequence of late delivery.
