If you decide to turn it off, do remember to include your contact information (such as a phone number and address, or opening hours) on your homepage, so people can find your key information easily.
The headings About us and Contact us are preset by Business Sitebuilder and cannot be overridden.

Other Information
The sidebar is set to show your most important business details on purpose. Research shows that most visitors to a website are looking for a few basic kinds of information: what’s the address, what’s the phone number, and what are the hours of the business? The sidebar makes it easy for your visitors to find this information on any page. You can write additional text in the Business description and Additional Info sections.
