The Georgia Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) and the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions (FACT) Package are important pieces of legislation that protect consumers' rights when it comes to their credit information. These laws aim to ensure fairness, accuracy, and privacy in the credit reporting industry. Under the Georgia FCRA, consumers have the right to access their credit reports from credit reporting agencies (Crash) and dispute any incorrect or outdated information. The FCRA also requires Crash to investigate and correct any errors within a reasonable timeframe. This law applies to all individuals and entities that maintain credit information about consumers. The Georgia FCRA also regulates who can access consumers' credit reports and for what purposes. It requires that businesses obtain consumers' consent before accessing their credit reports and use the information only for permissible purposes. This helps prevent identity theft and unauthorized access to credit information. The FACT Package consists of amendments to the federal FCRA to enhance consumer protection. FACT includes provisions such as mandatory free annual credit reports for consumers, limiting credit card account number truncation to improve identity theft prevention, and requiring businesses to safely dispose of individuals' personal information to protect against data breaches. There are no different types of Georgia FCRA and FACT Packages as such, but both laws have multiple provisions and amendments that are collectively referred to as the Georgia FCRA and FACT Package.
