6. Disclosure & Authorization

Federal law (the Fair Credit Reporting Act, or "FCRA") requires that we give you the following disclosure in a stand-alone document before we obtain any consumer report on you. Please read it carefully.

Disclosure Regarding Background Investigation

Garbage Drop ("the Company") may obtain information about you from a third-party consumer reporting agency for employment purposes. Thus, you may be the subject of a "consumer report" and/or an "investigative consumer report" which may include information about your character, general reputation, personal characteristics, and/or mode of living. These reports may contain information regarding your criminal history, social security number verification, motor vehicle records (MVR), verification of your education or employment history, or other background checks.

You have the right, upon written request made within a reasonable time, to request whether a consumer report has been run about you, and to disclosure of the nature and scope of any investigative consumer report. You will be provided the name, address, and telephone number of the consumer reporting agency.

You may also obtain a free copy of your consumer report and dispute its accuracy directly with the agency that prepared it. A "Summary of Your Rights Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act" is available from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and will be provided to you in writing if any adverse action is taken based on the report.

This disclosure is provided to you in a stand-alone document, separate from any other document provided by the Company, as required by 15 U.S.C. § 1681b(b)(2)(A)(i).

I have read and understand the Disclosure above. I acknowledge that I received it as a stand-alone document.

Authorization for Background Investigation

I, the undersigned applicant, hereby authorize Garbage Drop and its designated consumer reporting agency to obtain consumer reports and/or investigative consumer reports about me, including but not limited to:

Criminal history records (county, state, federal, sex offender registries)
Social security number verification & address history
Motor Vehicle Records (MVR)
Verification of past employment
Verification of education credentials
Professional license verification (if applicable)

I understand this authorization is valid for the duration of my employment if I am hired, and may be used to obtain updated reports periodically (for example, annual MVR pulls required by the Company's commercial auto insurance carrier).

I understand that I may revoke this authorization at any time by written notice to Garbage Drop, except where prohibited by law. I understand that revoking this authorization may end the application process or my employment.

I authorize Garbage Drop to obtain consumer reports and investigative consumer reports about me, including criminal, MVR, and employment verification reports, in connection with this application and (if hired) my ongoing employment. I specifically authorize Garbage Drop to obtain a Motor Vehicle Record (MVR) from the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (or my license-issuing state) annually for as long as I am employed, as required by the Company's commercial auto insurance carrier.
