What TransUnion's Vermont filing tells you
TransUnion is an active data broker on the Vermont Secretary of State registry, filed under Act 171 of 2018 (9 V.S.A. § 2446): the first U.S. law to require data brokers to register publicly. An active registration means the company has affirmed, on the record, that it collects and sells data about Vermont residents it has no direct relationship with, and that it remains subject to the statute's annual disclosure and security-standard obligations.
TransUnion disclosed that it does permit consumers to opt out. The stated scope: TransUnion may provide information to companies that provide consumers with pre-approved offers of credit or insurance, but only if the consumer has not otherwise opted-out of such offers. It also allows an authorized agent to submit the request on your behalf, which is what lets a tool like OfflistMe prepare the request for you to send.
To start removal, send a written deletion request to TransUnion at keith.mccawley@transunion.com, citing CCPA § 1798.105 and, where relevant, GDPR Article 17. Keep a dated copy so you can prove when the clock started. OfflistMe can generate this email pre-addressed and pre-worded: you review it and send it from your own account, so the request comes directly from you with no ID upload and no account on our end.
Credentialing & access controls
TransUnion has had a purchaser credentialing process in place for over 25 years. The credentialing process is intended to ensure compliance with TransUnion business practices and policies as well as applicable laws, rules, regulations, and standards that apply to TransUnion’s businesses.
