Faire's privacy policy now explicitly lists additional data elements used in credit assessments for retailers, including business identification data, country, predicted risk score, and credit risk rating. The updated language also removes a prior description of how credit risk ratings and payment history are used in setting credit limits, and adds a new provision allowing retailers to request human review or contest credit limit decisions. This expands transparency about what data factors into credit decisions while establishing a formal dispute mechanism.

Businesses: Retailers now know that Faire uses algorithmic risk predictions and credit ratings, not just payment history, when deciding their credit limits.

Businesses: Retailers can now formally challenge or request reconsideration of credit limit decisions by contacting Faire.
