What are my Background Check Disclosure and Consent Rights?
An employer can’t go behind your back to obtain a background check. According to the law, you have to give written consent in order for them to do so. If you give them permission and they use the information they receive to deny you employment, they must tell you so.
In order for SecureCheck360 to lawfully provide a potential employer with information from a background check, the employer must certify that they’ve clearly disclosed that they will seek a background check, that you’ve authorized the background check, and that they’ll provide you with a copy of the report and a summary of your FCRA rights if the information is used against you.
Your Right to an Accurate and Legally-Compliant Report From SecureCheck360
SecureCheck360 must take appropriate steps to ensure its report is as accurate as possible.
The Fair Credit Reporting Act limits the kind of negative information reported in a background check. For example, your background check can’t list lawsuits, judgments, arrest records, and debt collection activity that’s seven or more years old. It also can’t list a bankruptcy that is more than ten years old.
Your Right to Dispute Dispositions and Discrepancies on an Unfair Report from SecureCheck360
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, you are entitled to a copy of the background check report if the information contained in the report is the reason you didn’t get the job.

If you file a dispute with SecureCheck360, the company is responsible for investigating and correcting errors. They have 30 days to do so.
Your Right to Sue SecureCheck360 if Your Report Includes Mistakes, or Inaccurate or Illegal Info
