And i was not informed of my ability to opt out of the hard inquiry under ***12 CFR 1016.7 Form of opt out notice to consumers ; opt out methods. *** I have the right to make sure my private information is not shared which is backed by 15 USC 6801 which states " It is the policy of the Congress that each financial institution has an affirmative and continuing obligation to respect the privacy of its customers and to protect the security and confidentiality of those customers nonpublic personal information. '' According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 USC 1681 section 602 a states " There is a need to insure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. '' XXXX and Experian are consumer reporting agencies and I am the Consumer.
