These verification efforts require us to ask you to provide certain Personal Information so that we can match it with Personal Information you have previously provided us. For instance, depending on the type of request you submit, we may contact you through a communication method (e.g., phone or email) that you have previously provided to us. We may also use other verification methods as the circumstances dictate.
We will only use Personal Information provided in your request to verify your identity or authority to make the request. To the extent possible, we will avoid requesting additional information from you for the purposes of verification. However, if we cannot verify your identity from the Personal Information already maintained by us, we may request that you provide additional Personal Information for the purposes of verifying your identity and for security or fraud-prevention purposes. We will delete such additionally provided Personal Information as soon as we finish verifying you.
