TIPS
The form references OurStates.org internally, suggesting the two sites share the same operator and database. If you appear on OurStates.org, a single request may cover both.
If your state is not in the dropdown, contact the site directly at freebackgroundchecks.com/contact-us.
No penalty for making a privacy request — the site explicitly states this.
