ChoicePoint Informs Users of Reduced Access to Data

Message to ChoicePoint users appears after login: “Dear Customer – Based on recent issues, we are taking a proactive stance on managing access to sensitive information. ChoicePoint is requesting an update of your user and account information and reducing your access to some data – until we process the update. Your account is still open and searches are running. Some Social Security numbers, Drivers License numbers and birth dates have been truncated (only part of the number will display) on reports or searches. We understand this may cause concern for your company or interfere with productivity. We sincerely apologize and will compensate you by crediting some future searches on ChoicePoint products. An account representative will call you to update your information. If you call or email us now, we cannot update or change your data access. If you have data questions or product questions contact us at 1-800-279-7710 or email us. We are serious about serving customers and serious about the responsible use of information. These may seem in conflict, but we are working towards a better solution for all stakeholders. Thank you for your understanding.”
