Fair Credit Reporting Act
The Fair Credit Reporting Act promotes the accuracy, fairness, and privacy of consumer information contained in the files of consumer reporting agencies. If your company meets the definition of a "consumer reporting agency," if you furnish information to CRAs, or if you use that information for certain purposes, you may have obligations under the FCRA.
