If the information products End-User obtains from VALIDITY SCREENING SOLUTIONS are to be used for an employment
purpose, End-User certifies that prior to obtaining or causing a “consumer report” and/or “investigative consumer report” to
be obtained, a clear and conspicuous disclosure, in a document consisting solely of the disclosure, will be made in writing to the
consumer explaining that a consumer report and/or investigative consumer report may be obtained for employment purposes.
This disclosure will satisfy all requirements identified in Section 606(a)(1) of the FCRA, as well as any applicable state or local laws.
The consumer will have authorized, in writing, the obtaining of the report by End-User. Per consumer statute of limitations, it is
recommended to keep this written authorization on file for five (5) years.
If the consumer is denied employment, or other adverse employment action is taken based in whole or in part on the information
products provided by VALIDITY SCREENING SOLUTIONS, End-User will provide to the consumer: (1) a copy of the report, and
(2) a description, in writing, of the rights of the consumer entitled: “A Summary of Your Rights Under the Fair Credit Reporting
Act”, and (3)a description, in writing, of the rights of the consumer, if they believe to be a victim of identity theft, entitled:
“Remedying the Effects of Identity Theft: Summary of Consumer Rights Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act” (Best practice includes
giving this document to all consumers initially along with “A Summary of Your Rights Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act” ). After
the appropriate waiting period, End-User will issue to the consumer notice of the adverse action taken, including the statutorily
required notices identified in Section 615 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

investigative consumer report has been requested, written disclosure of the nature and scope of the investigation requested; and (3)
