The Value of a Reliable Public Record Information in Maine
With over 20 years of experience, Eagle Eye Screening Solutions provides wholesale public records retrieval services in the state of Maine.
Maine uses a centralized criminal history repository, making statewide background checks efficient and comprehensive.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) applies in Maine, safeguarding consumer privacy and guaranteeing data accuracy in background checks. Accessing reliable data empowers Consumer Reporting Agencies (CRAs) to deliver accurate and complete reports to clients, helping employers make informed hiring decisions while mitigating negligent hiring risks.
