The three major credit bureaus--Experian, Equifax and TransUnion--collect information on you and your financial transactions and provide credit information and credit scores to businesses and lenders.

You can go to their websites to learn more about each company and about how they protect the information they collect.

Along with basic information on credit issues, the websites all have helpful information on how to deal with Identity Theft.
