With USAintel be assured that we operate in full compliance with the governing standards in our industry. Here's a list of just some of the industry-governing Acts, organizations and laws, which we comply with:

FCRA Compliance
The Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) is designed to protect individuals by promoting accuracy, fairness, and privacy of information in the files of every Consumer Reporting Agency (CRA). Most CRAs are credit bureaus that gather and provide information about individuals - such as if they pay their bills on time or have filed bankruptcy - to creditors, employers, and landlords. Companies that perform pre-employment screening services, such as USAintel, are also governed by the FCRA, as are the employers that use USAintel background screening services.

USAintel provides online templates of all letters and forms necessary to comply with FCRA employment background screening requirements, including:

• Applicant Disclosure and Consent forms
• Adverse Action letters
• Summary of Consumer Rights

Compliance with Canadian Reporting Regulations
USAintel follows the tenets set forth in the Canadian Privacy Act with regard to the protection of applicant information for employment screening purposes. In addition, USAintel provides the necessary forms required for applicant consent for criminal, credit and driving records reporting as defined by the Ministry of Transportation (MOT), the Canadian Police Information Centre (CPIC) and governing bodies of the individual Canadian provinces and territories (e.g. provincial departments of motor vehicles).
