Metro's identity theft prevention program
Doing business › Doing business with metro › Identity theft prevention program
The Federal Trade Commission requires businesses to have an identity theft program in place to protect charge account customers. This is Metro’s program to comply with this law.
The purpose of the program is to establish an identity theft prevention program designed to detect, prevent and mitigate identity theft in connection with the opening of a covered account or any existing covered account and to provide the continued administration of the program in compliance with Part 681 of Title 16 of the Code of Federal Regulations implementing Sections 114 and 315 of the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act (FACTA) of 2003.
In preparing this program, Metro strives to identify patterns, practices and specific forms of activities, or Red Flags, that could indicate the possible existence of identity theft. This program better positions Metro to stop identity theft at its inception.
This program incorporates existing policies, procedures and other arrangements that control reasonably foreseeable risks to Metro's customers or reasonably foreseeable risks to the safety and soundness of Metro from identity theft.
