PRIVACY NOTICE

Effective Date: 2/3/2023

Commitment to Privacy

SafeRent Solutions is committed to respecting the privacy of consumers. This notice provides more information on our data privacy practices, including how we collect, use, disclose, store and otherwise process personal information in the course of providing services to our customers, including when we resell consumer reports to our customers. This notice also describes how consumers can access their consumer report and correct or delete inaccurate or incomplete information. This privacy notice is informational only and is not a contract, nor does it create any legal rights or obligations.

How We Obtain Personal Information

Personal information, as used in this notice, means any information that relates to or can be used to identify an individual person, including name, address, date of birth, telephone number, and Social Security number. In the course of business, customers provide personal information to SafeRent Solutions in order to obtain the services, as allowed by applicable credit reporting and data privacy laws.

SafeRent Solutions maintains a database of criminal records. Any information contained within these records is considered to be publicly available information. Separate from its criminal record database, SafeRent Solutions is also a reseller of consumer reports. When acting as a reseller, SafeRent Solutions does not maintain its own database of personal information from which new reports are created. Instead, we obtain consumer reports from third-party sources and deliver this information to our customers.

How We Use Personal Information

In addition to obtaining and providing consumer reports to our customers, SafeRent Solutions uses personal information to support other business functions, such as maintaining data integrity and accuracy and for fraud prevention, information security, legal support, and statistical analysis. We also access personal information when contacted by consumers in order to authenticate and assist consumers regarding their consumer reports.

Disclosure of Personal Information to Third Parties

Information SafeRent Solutions receives from customers or data vendors may be sent to our affiliates, subcontractors, or technology and data vendors that assist us in providing services.

SafeRent Solutions sells consumer report information to customers who have a permissible purpose under applicable credit reporting and data privacy laws.

Disclosure of Personal Information for Legal and Safety Reasons

SafeRent Solutions may be required to disclose personal information to the authorities, law enforcement agencies, government agencies, or legal entities. We may disclose information as required by law, litigation, or as a matter of national security to comply with valid legal processes including subpoenas, court orders or search warrants, and as otherwise authorized by law. We may also need to disclose personal information in the event of an emergency that threatens an individual’s life, health, or security.

Security Measures to Protect Personal Information

Security of personal information is important to SafeRent Solutions. SafeRent Solutions has put security measures into place to protect the confidentiality of personal information we collect. Accordingly, we prohibit the unlawful disclosure of personal information and limit access to the same. While no data transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, we maintain an information security program that contains administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect the security and confidentiality of personal information from unauthorized disclosure in accordance with applicable credit reporting and data privacy laws. We have also taken steps to ensure that access to personal information is limited to necessary employees and third parties.

Retention of Data and Disposal of Personal Information

SafeRent Solutions retains personal information for as long as it is necessary for business purposes and to provide services to customers. At the end of its retention lifecycle, personal information is destroyed or otherwise rendered inaccessible. SafeRent Solutions takes reasonable measures to protect against unauthorized access to or use of consumer information in connection with its disposal of personal information.

Accuracy of Consumer Reports

SafeRent Solutions follows reasonable procedures to ensure the accuracy of information in consumer reports, as required under FCRA 607(b).

Consumer Access and Correction Rights

Consumers can contact us to request a SafeRent Solutions criminal record report or a copy of the consumer report previously provided to an SafeRent Solutions customer. In order to protect the privacy of consumers, we require that consumers provide proper identification prior to disclosing consumer report information. Under Section 611 of the FCRA, a consumer has the right to dispute inaccurate or incomplete information in a consumer report. For criminal record disputes, SafeRent Solutions will investigate the dispute and provide the results to the consumer.

If the disputed information was provided by another consumer reporting agency, we review the dispute to determine whether the inaccuracy is a result of SafeRent Solutions’ report or a result of the information from the consumer reporting agencies. If the inaccuracy stems from SafeRent Solutions’ report, we will correct or delete the inaccurate information. If the inaccuracy comes from information provided by consumer reporting agencies, SafeRent Solutions will convey the dispute to those consumer reporting agencies for further investigation. When the consumer reporting agency notifies SafeRent Solutions of the results of their investigation, we will convey the information to the consumer.

Opt Out of Prescreening

Under Section 604(c) of the FCRA, a consumer reporting agency may sell consumer reports in connection with any credit or insurance transaction that is not initiated by the consumer if the transaction consists of a firm offer of credit or insurance. This is also known as prescreening. Section 604(e) of the FCRA gives consumers the right to opt out of prescreening. Consumers can opt out at www.optoutprescreen.com. The opt-out request is sent to Equifax, Experian, Innovis, and TransUnion. If a consumer opted out and would later like to opt in, the consumer can request to opt in at www.optoutprescreen.com. Since SafeRent Solutions does not participate in prescreening, we are unable to process your optout request directly.

Children’s Privacy

SafeRent Solutions does not knowingly collect information on children under the age of 16.

California Consumer Privacy Act Compliance Notice

SafeRent Solutions, LLC (“SafeRent”, “we” or “us”) are a leading global property information, analytics and data-enabled software platforms and services provider. Our vision is to deliver unique property-level insights that power the global real estate economy.

We understand the importance our clients and consumers place on privacy. After reviewing our data and data practices and consulting with privacy law counsel, we have concluded that only as where applicable, SafeRent complies with the CCPA. (“Our Limited CCPA Obligations”):

To maintain reasonable security of the personal information of Californians that we collect and process; and
To comply with the CCPA’s obligations applicable to service providers as defined by the CCPA.

We do not have full CCPA obligations to California consumers as of the Effective Date because:

We provide business-to-business (B2B) products and services and do not offer products or services directly to consumers; and
When we do collect and process personal information from or about consumers, we have determined it is in one of the following contexts. The CCPA exempts each context from any obligations beyond Our Limited CCPA Obligations:
Data That Is Processed in Our Capacity as a Service Provider. When we process consumer personal information as a service provider for another business, that business, not us, is the owner and controller of the personal information and responsible for CA Consumer Request Rights related to that data. If you want to inquire about personal information we process for our clients as their service provider, you should contact those entities directly. Due to confidentiality considerations, we do not disclose or confirm the identity of our clients or what data we process for them.
- Data That Is Regulated and Protected by Other Laws. The CCPA recognizes that other privacy laws already exist to protect certain types of personal information under certain circumstances. We are subject to and comply with several of these laws, including the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), the federal Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), the Driver’s Privacy Protection Act of 1994 (DPPA), and the California Financial Information Privacy Act. The CCPA exempts personal information that is already regulated and protected by those laws, and we apply our obligations under those laws to that data.
- Data That Is Publicly Available. The CCPA exempts personal information that is lawfully made available from federal, state, or local government records.
- Data That Is Deidentified or Aggregated. The CCPA does not consider deidentified or aggregated data to be personal information.

For more information on how we collect and process personal information via our online services, see the privacy notices and policies posted on those services.
