New Summary of Rights & Security Freeze

Please be advised the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection issued a rule to update the Summary of Rights, which implement the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

The new form provides the following update:

Consumers Have The Right To Obtain A Security Freeze.  You have a right to place a “security freeze” on your credit report, which will prohibit a consumer reporting agency from releasing information in your credit report without your express authorization.

You may view the full security freeze updated section and obtain an updated version of the document here.
