A Summary of Your Rights Under the Fair Credit
Reporting Act
The federal Fair Credit Reporting
Act (FCRA) is designed to promote accuracy, fairness, and privacy of information
used in the process of granting credit. This information is supplied
by public record sources, credit grantors and others to credit reporting
agencies (CRA's) who organize and store that information for distribution
to credit grantors, employers and insurers who are making credit, employment
and insurance decisions about you. The FCRA gives suppliers and
users of credit information, and CRA's, specific responsibilities in connection
with their respective roles in the credit granting and reporting process.
The FCRA also gives you specific rights in dealing with these entities,
as summarized below. You can find the complete text of the FCRA,
15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq., at the Federal Trade Commission's web site (http://www.ftc.gov)
. You may have additional rights under the state law. You
may contact a state of local consumer protection agency or a state attorney
general to learn those rights.
