How quickly will I be alerted by Falcon Guard if my listing is changed?
Falcon Guard provides two daily alerts when changes are detected. You'll be notified immediately via email and through the notifications section of your Local Falcon account whenever changes are detected, allowing you to decide whether to take action before the changes impact your business's visibility or reputation.
What types of changes to my Google Business Profile listing should I be concerned about?

Falcon Guard will alert you to all changes.
