Data & Compliance

The information available through Truckscribe is compiled from publicly available and lawfully obtained sources. These include business registration, licensing, and operating-authority records originating from federal and state transportation authorities, including the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), together with other public and third-party data sources. We aggregate, organize, verify where practicable, and enhance this information so that it can be used efficiently by our subscribers.

The records made available through the Service are business and professional records relating to commercial operators and their representatives in a business capacity. They are not consumer reports, and the Service is not a consumer reporting agency. The information must not be used as a factor in decisions about credit, insurance, employment, housing, or any other purpose governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) or similar laws.

Outreach to businesses is regulated. As a subscriber, you are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of the information complies with all applicable laws and rules, which may include:

• the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and rules on calling, texting, and automated dialing;
• federal and state Do-Not-Call requirements;
• the CAN-SPAM Act and other commercial-email rules;
• state telemarketing and solicitation laws; and
• applicable data-protection and privacy laws.

This means obtaining any required consents, honoring opt out and do not contact requests, screening against applicable suppression lists, and verifying information before relying on it. We provide data and tools, not legal advice.

Much of the underlying information originates from third-party and public sources that we do not control. It may contain errors, omissions, or out-of-date entries and is provided on an “as is” basis without warranty of accuracy or completeness. You should independently verify information before acting on it.

If you are a business representative and believe a record relating to you should be corrected or removed, the fastest way is our removal request form. No account needed. You can also contact us at data [at] truckscribe [dot] com with enough detail to locate it (your USDOT or docket number helps). We act on verified requests in good faith and, where appropriate, will suppress the record so it no longer appears in our search results, feeds, or exports. Because much of this information originates from public government records that we do not control, suppression removes the record from our platform but not from those original government sources.

We use reasonable measures designed to protect the information we hold, including encryption in transit and access controls. No system is completely secure, but we work to safeguard our platform and the data within it.
