In California shredding customer records isn’t just a good idea, It’s the Law!
1798.81. A business shall take all reasonable steps to dispose, or arrange for the disposal,of customer records within its custody or control containing personal information when the records are no longer to be retained by the business by (a) shredding,(b) erasing, or (c) otherwise modifying the personal information in those records to make it unreadable or undecipherable through any means.
We all need protection from rampant identity theft and from criminals looking to exploit weak privacy practices. Here are some links and information about laws and legislation will help you ensure that you are compliant.
Choosing Shred Bull will help your business comply with the following legislation:

- Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (GLB)requires financial institutions to develop precautions to ensure the security and confidentiality of customer information, and to protect against unauthorized access to or use of such records. This includes secure storage, disposal, and sharing of confidential information.
- Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003 (FACTA)amends the Fair Credit Reporting Act. FACTA is intended to combat consumer fraud and related crimes, including identity theft, and to assist its victims.
