Personal users
A personal account is for any individual with a criminal record who is enquiring about their own criminal record, or a for a friend/family member who is enquiring on their behalf. It should not be used by organisations, professionals or others (e.g. mentors, support workers) who are providing support or services to people with a criminal record.
Multiple-use account users
These allow for multiple uses, depending on the account level selected, and are designed for organisations and practitioners that provide support to people with convictions.
Accounts are specific to an organisation. They cannot be shared with other organisations.
If you wish to share your account with other partners of a joint project, please provide us with details of this when submitting your details and we will discuss this with you on an individual basis. Sharing of account details with other organisations without prior authorisation may result in your account being suspended or cancelled.
