Complaint narrative:

My rights have been violated under the Privacy Act of 1974 which states in short that Federal agencies may not disclose information without consent unless certain exceptions apply to the disclosure. In accordance to the Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 USC 1681 section 602 a " There is a need to ensure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their great responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. '' XXXX, XXXX and XXXX are consumer reporting agencies and I am the Consumer. I have the right to make sure my private information isn't 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. '' CREDIT CORP SOLUTIONS as debt buyer and collection agency has purchased account XXXX ( {$560.00} ) from XXXX XXXX. These are both financial institutions by definition under that title. 15 USC 1681 section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) states that, In general, Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : in accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates.

CREDIT CORP SOLUTIONS and XXXX XXXX  never informed me of my right to exercise my nondisclosure option. Not only that, 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) states Except as authorized under subsection ( b ), no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information, any other adverse item of information, other than records of convictions of crimes which antedates the report by more than seven years.
