Veriswift’s

Background Screening Privacy Policy

As a consumer reporting agency governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”) and other applicable state and federal laws, Veriswift is committed to protecting your right to privacy.

This privacy policy covers Veriswift’s practices, policies, and security measures regarding the receipt, storage, and use of “Personally Identifiable Information” for background screening purposes. This policy also covers the receipt of certain information through Veriswift’s website (“Website”) for background screening purposes.

All information collected by Veriswift will be collected, stored, and used in compliance with applicable laws, including the FCRA.

Personally Identifiable Information Collected

Veriswift will only collect “Personally Identifiable Information” about you if you voluntarily choose to provide such information to Veriswift and/or in connection with a background check authorized by you. “Personally Identifiable Information” that Veriswift may collect about you through our Website or otherwise may include, but is not limited to: name, address, email address, phone number, date of birth, birthplace, driver’s license number, social security number, employer, employment details, and information regarding prior criminal proceedings, civil proceedings or credit-related activities.

With Whom Veriswift Shares Personally Identifiable Information

Veriswift will not disclose your “Personally Identifiable Information” to a third party, except in accordance with applicable laws.

Typically, Veriswift will only disclose “Personally Identifiable Information” regarding the subject of a background check to a third-party in the following situations:

  • To an employer or prospective employer which has been authorized in writing by the consumer to receive information about him or her for employment purposes;
  • To a landlord or property management firm which has been authorized in writing by the consumer to receive information about him or her for tenant screening purposes; or
  • As otherwise required by law.

End-users (e.g., employers and prospective employers) may only obtain information from Veriswift after they have certified a legal permissible purpose for receiving such information.

Where Veriswift transfers “Personally Identifiable Information” to a representative or third-party subcontractor assisting with a background check, Veriswift provides only the information required to assist with the background check. Veriswift prohibits such third-party representatives and subcontractors from using consumer information for any purpose other than assisting Veriswift with the background check. Veriswift also contractually requires such third-party representatives and subcontractors to maintain commercially-reasonable measures to protect the confidentiality of consumer information they receive.

Veriswift does not resell to third parties any data provided to us for marketing purposes under any circumstances.

How To Access, Correct, And Change Personally Identifiable Information

Veriswift strives to maintain the accuracy and integrity of the information collected through the Website and otherwise. You can access and update certain personal information we have about you by calling us toll free at 888-203-5049 or by visiting our website at https://www.veriswift.com/.

If you are an individual on whom one of our clients has requested a background screening investigation, and/or you have submitted “Personally Identifiable Information” to us at the request of such client for purposes of the background screening investigation, you may review your Veriswift file in accordance with your file disclosure rights under the FCRA, California Civil Code Section 1786.22 or any other applicable law by contacting us toll–free at Veriswift at 888-203-5049, or in another legally authorized way.

To protect consumers’ privacy and security, we will take reasonable steps to verify an individual’s identity before granting access to “Personally Identifiable Information” or allowing corrections to such data.

Personal Information Disclosure: United States Or Overseas

Generally, Veriswift does not transfer information to third parties outside of the United States or its territories. Such transfers would only be done if necessary to complete an international background check (e.g., conducting an international criminal check or verifying educational or employment records outside of the U.S.).

Security Of Your Information

Veriswift abides by all applicable state and federal laws pertaining to the security of data supplied to us. Veriswift uses industry-standard physical, technical, and administrative security measures and safeguards to protect the confidentiality and security of your personal information. For example, Veriswift has established mechanisms to help maintain a secure network, encrypted back-up data, and established limits on employee access to information.

When data is ready to be destroyed or disposed of, Veriswift will follow all applicable laws and regulations and take measures to ensure that all such records and data are destroyed and unrecoverable.
