Transparency of Sources: In CLEAR, sources and their corresponding "reported dates" are provided with search results to provide maximum transparency to the user. The reported dates shown on records indicate the dates of the transaction or activity associated with the record at the source. In contrast, many providers of investigative database services list the date that the information was most recently updated in their database, and not when it was updated at the source. CLEAR shows the actual date of update in the source data. Additional source details, such as detailed coverage information and update frequencies, are provided in CLEAR's Online Help, so that users can be assured of the credibility, reliability, and currentness of the data.
