The confidentiality statement, the statutory screening disclosure, safe-meeting guidance and a named person to report to. Linked from the foot of every page.
Claret Room conducts criminal background screening on every member before a first introduction is arranged. Screening is carried out by a licensed third-party consumer reporting agency and covers county, state and federal conviction records in the United States.
Screening is one check among several. It does not replace your own judgement, and it cannot tell you whether a person is honest, kind or right for you. Read the safe-meeting guidance below before any first meeting, and tell your matchmaker immediately if anything at all concerns you.
A member whose screening returns a conviction for a violent or sexual offence, or for fraud against a person, is not accepted into the roster. Members are re-screened at each renewal.
CLARET ROOM CONDUCTS CRIMINAL BACKGROUND SCREENING ON EVERY ACCEPTED MEMBER. CRIMINAL BACKGROUND SCREENING IS NOT FOOLPROOF. IT MAY GIVE MEMBERS A FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY. IT IS NOT A PERFECT SAFETY NET. SCREENINGS ARE LIMITED TO PUBLICLY AVAILABLE CONVICTION RECORDS, ARE NOT CURRENT IN EVERY STATE, AND DO NOT COVER ARRESTS OR ANY CONVICTION RECORDED OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES.
What is searched
Government photo identification, county and federal criminal conviction records, national sex-offender registries, and verification of employment or business ownership.
How verification worksWhat is not searched
Arrests without conviction, sealed or expunged records, records held outside the United States, and any state whose records are not published or not current at the time of the search.
