Under the guidelines of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, it is stipulated in 15 USC 1681 section 602 ( a ) that consumer reporting agencies must carry out their duties with fairness, impartiality, and respect for consumer privacy. Early Warning is recognized as consumer reporting agencies, and I, as the consumer, have the fundamental right to safeguard my private information, as reinforced by 15 USC 6801, which mandates financial institutions to uphold customer privacy and safeguard their nonpublic personal information. XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX being financial institutions, falls under this mandate. As per 15 USC 1681 section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ), consumer reporting agencies can only furnish a consumer report with explicit written instructions from the consumer concerned.
