ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

These CCPA/CPRA rights give California consumers meaningful legal tools to control how Equifax — one of the most data-rich companies about their financial lives — uses and shares their information, and exercising these rights is free of charge.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Equifax's policy authorizes collection of a wide range of sensitive personal and financial data, including credit history, income, government identifiers, geolocation, and biometric information, and permits sharing this data with affiliates, business partners, and service providers for purposes including marketing and analytics that extend beyond core credit reporting. Because Equifax operates simultaneously as a credit bureau, data broker, and consumer products company, data you provide in one context may be used or shared in others. You can submit privacy rights requests, including requests to opt out of data sale or sharing, access your data, or request deletion, through the Equifax privacy rights portal at equifax.com/personal/privacy-policy.
