It may not be used to decide eligibility for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or any other FCRA-covered purpose.

11. California Law and CPRA Requests
California law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. The California Public Records Act (CPRA), Government Code §7920.000 et seq., governs requests to California public agencies for existing disclosable records. Under Government Code §7922.535, an agency generally makes a determination within 10 calendar days and may issue a written unusual-circumstances extension of up to 14 additional days where the statute permits. The CPRA does not require an agency to create a record or perform research.
12. Severability
If a provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in effect.
