Why is certain information, like my Social Security Number, needed? And how is it protected?
Just as commercial background checks are done, Social Security Number information is needed to verify the correct person is being searched. Court records, by design, only contain name and date of birth of a person. Name variations or abbreviations are not included, only exact name and date of birth.
That is why we only use a SSN to verify your identity and to be able to show any misuse of your identity by another person. Your SSN is never stored in any way and each session is secure by using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol with 128-bit encryption. Your data and all of our data is always encrypted.
The SSN is only used by our platform to match any public record information. This will include other variations of your name that you may have used as well as addresses to identify or to rule out any criminal records at the court houses.
