Not a Consumer Reporting Agency
ProofSweep (a Twisted English LLC company) is not a Consumer Reporting Agency, and its reports are not consumer reports as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. ProofSweep reports observable characteristics of submitted documents and publicly available business records only. It does not verify identity, creditworthiness, criminal history, or eviction history, and it makes no determination that any person has committed fraud. Risk indicators can have innocent explanations (e.g., employers of record, PEOs, staffing agencies, and small employers using custom payroll templates). Screening decisions remain solely the responsibility of the housing provider and must comply with the Fair Housing Act, the FCRA where applicable, and state and local law, including source-of-income protections.
What ProofSweep is — and isn’t
ProofSweep examines the characteristics of documents you submit and publicly available business records. It does not verify a person’s identity, creditworthiness, criminal history, or eviction history, and it makes no determination that any individual has committed fraud.
Risk indicators can have innocent explanations
A “risk indicator” is an observation, not an accusation. Employers of record, PEOs, staffing agencies, and small employers using custom payroll templates can all produce documents that trigger indicators for entirely legitimate reasons. Reports are triage, not proof — always confirm with stronger verification before making a decision.
Your responsibility
Screening decisions remain solely the responsibility of the housing provider and must comply with the Fair Housing Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act where applicable, and state and local law, including source-of-income protections. Apply the same verification process to every applicant.
