Transparency alternatives to Accurate Background
Other Background screening vendors we measure, sorted by how much we found at them and not at Accurate Background. This is a comparison of disclosure, not of features or fitness.
12 shown of 32 that differ from Accurate Background on at least one criterion we measured for both. Public transparency score, not a product or security rating.
Accurate Background has 11 gaps in what we could measure: Data processing agreement, Subprocessor list, Data location stated, Public pricing, Certifications named, Uptime SLA with a figure, HTTPS enforced with HSTS, No third-party tracking before consent, security.txt (RFC 9116), Notice before subprocessors change, Named privacy contact. The column “Found there, not found at Accurate Background” is the one that closes them.
