Electronic commerce company Intelius has justified the need to check on somebody’s life. This company offers potentially life-saving and asset-protecting services, based on public intelligence, to millions of consumers and businesses.

Based in Washington, Intellius, Inc. primarily engages in the retrieval of a person’s criminal records, sex offender files, court dockets, census records, real estate appraisal documents, and other public records in the US.

Information like the above form the core of Intellius’ services, which include background checks, award-winning identity theft protection solutions, and other public information-based intelligence reports.

The company supplies background reports on any American citizen on record, complete with contact details like his or her phone numbers, email addresses, etc. It also lists the properties and residences the person has occupied and owned for the last twenty or thirty years. Moreover, such reports reveal if the person had any history of crimes and civil judgments. The reports also indicate if a specific person is still living or not.

Additionally, as a report comes up with a person’s criminal history, they make for great tools in employment screening and personal safety. In the latter sense, parents can ask for background reports of their children’s care providers. Homeowners can also use it to protect against miscreants in the real estate industry.

IDWatch, Intelius’ very own suite of identity fraud prevention products, provides 24-hour monitoring of one’s public records profile for any discrepancies. Intelius, to an extent, can also provide coverage of damages and losses resulting from identity compromises.

Along with some co-workers at InfoSpace, where he previously served as CEO, Naveen Jain established Intelius on January 2003 in Bellevue, Washington. He was formerly an employee at Microsoft.
