trust_center:
  published: false

  note: 'Experian operates no trust center in the modern sense — no trust.experian.com, no
    self-service portal serving SOC 2 reports, pen-test summaries or a live sub-processor list, and
    no downloadable evidence behind an NDA click-through. What it publishes instead is a Request for
    Information (RFI) page per product, which is a structured security questionnaire response: it
    answers the standard due-diligence questions in prose and names the certifications, but gates the
    evidence itself. Recorded as published: false because the artifact a buyer or an agent can
    actually read is an RFI page, not a trust center.'

  per_product_example: https://docs.experianaperture.io/more/request-for-information/experian-address-validation
  note: A per-product Request for Information page answering security, data-handling and compliance
    questions for each Data Quality product.
certifications:
- name: ISO/IEC 27001
  scope: Experian Data Quality products
  evidence: 'Stated verbatim on the product RFI page: "ISO 27001 Certificates available upon
    request."'
  source: https://docs.experianaperture.io/more/request-for-information/experian-address-validation
  verified: documented-not-downloadable
  note: The certificate itself is not published; it is released on request. No certificate number,
    registrar or scope statement is public.
certifications_unverified:
  note: 'Third-party and Experian marketing sources describe a wider certification estate — ISO
    27017 and ISO 27018 cloud add-ons, Cyber Essentials, and SOC 2 Type 2 for the Tapad business
    Experian acquired. None of these was found stated on a first-party Experian page reachable in
    this pass, so they are recorded here as unverified leads rather than as certifications above.
    EI3PA (Experian Independent Third Party Assessment) is notable in the other direction: it is a
    standard Experian IMPOSES on its own data recipients rather than one it holds.'
  leads:
  - ISO 27017
  - ISO 27018
  - Cyber Essentials
  - SOC 2 Type 2 (Tapad, an Experian company)

regulatory_context:
  note: 'Experian is a consumer reporting agency and its credit products are regulated rather than
    merely certified — FCRA and GLBA in the United States, the Data Protection Act / UK GDPR and FCA
    regimes in the United Kingdom. Those obligations are structural to the business and are not a
    published API-security artifact, so they are recorded as context here and not claimed as
    certifications.'
