• Describe Your request with sufficient detail that allows FLAG MISTAKES to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

FLAG MISTAKES cannot respond to Your request or provide You with personal information if FLAG MISTAKES cannot verify Your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to You.  Making a verifiable consumer request does not require You to create an account with us.  FLAG MISTAKES will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.
