In addition, Equifax may conduct audits by mail that may require Broker to provide documentation regarding the use of particular Credit Information ordered by Equifax and the authentication and authorization of the underlying Consumers. Any audit hereunder shall not disrupt the normal business operations of Broker.

(B) No Unauthorized Representations. Broker will make no representations or warranties on behalf of Equifax or relating to the Credit Information except as authorized in writing by Equifax. A sample of Broker’s current terms and conditions of use applicable to the Products are attached hereto as Schedule A.

(C) Submission of Inquiries; Facilities. Broker will request the Credit Information from Equifax by electronic means or other means as may be agreed to from time to time by Equifax and Broker. Each request will contain sufficient identifying information concerning the Consumer about whom the information is requested to enable Equifax to provide the Credit Information, and will identify in the manner specified by Equifax, the fact that the request is being made by Broker. Broker will be responsible for obtaining and maintaining at its expense all hardware, software and telecommunications facilities necessary to order, access and receive the Credit Information (either directly or through a Service Provider subject to Section 2.3[J]). Equifax will provide reasonable consultation to Broker to assist in defining those hardware and software needs.

(D) Consumer Authentication. Broker will verify that each Consumer who receives a Product from Broker is the subject of the Credit Information contained in such Product, in accordance with the authentication procedures set forth in Schedule B (Broker authentication procedures).
