1Your VantageScore credit score(s) are provided by VantageScore Solutions LLC. The VantageScore model, with scores ranging from 300 to 850, was developed jointly by the three major national credit reporting agencies - Experian®, TransUnion®, and Equifax®. The version of VantageScore provided here is used by some, but not all, lenders. Your score(s) may not be identical or similar to scores received directly from those agencies, from other sources, or from your lender.

2 Daily monitoring will notify you of certain new inquiries and derogatory information, accounts, public records, or change of address that have been added to your credit reports as reported by any of the three major credit reporting agencies. If no information has been added or changed, then you will receive a monthly notification stating that no information has changed within your credit file.

3 PrivacyGuard monitors your current or past mailing addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, bank accounts, passport, driver's license, Social Security number, child's Social Security number and date of birth on the Internet based on a search of Internet directories; plus up to ten registered credit/debit cards, up to ten registered bank accounts, and your Social Security number on the Internet, based on an extensive search of Internet chat rooms. However, we cannot ensure that all internet directories and chat rooms have been searched for your personal information. Accordingly, we may not be able to apprise you of all of your personal information that may have been compromised.
