In the complex world of credit reporting, it’s vital to recognize your rights and the protective measures in place to ensure your financial data is handled correctly.

- Privacy of Information: Strict limits are set on who can access your credit report and for what purposes.
- Dispute Resolution: Consumers have the right to dispute incorrect information on their credit report, and credit reporting agencies must investigate and correct any inaccuracies.
