Observational data
Every field is a record that exists in a named federal source, with its date — never a score, prediction, or characterization of any company. Public-source records are matched to employers by normalized name and address; match tier and confidence are disclosed on every response. FirmStanding is not a consumer reporting agency and this is not a consumer report — not for use in determining eligibility for employment, credit, insurance, tenancy, or any other purpose regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).
