General Business (GBS) CHAPTER 20, ARTICLE 25
§ 380-k. Compliance procedures. Every consumer or reporting agency
shall maintain reasonable procedures designed to avoid violations of
sections three hundred eighty-b, three hundred eighty-j and three
hundred eighty-t of this article and to limit the furnishing of consumer
reports to the purposes listed under said section three hundred
eighty-b. These procedures shall require all prospective users of the
information to identify themselves, certify the purposes for which the
information is sought, and certify that the information will be used for
no other purpose. Every consumer reporting agency shall make a
reasonable effort to verify the identity of a new prospective user and
the uses certified by such prospective user prior to furnishing such
user a consumer report. No consumer reporting agency may furnish a
consumer report to any person if it has reasonable grounds for believing
that the consumer report will not be used for a purpose listed in
section three hundred eighty-b of this article.
