Guard Your School Against Financial and Reputational Risks
ParentCheck+ enables powerful batch screening of your customer lists, helping independent schools safeguard their reputation and comply with regulatory requirements. This innovative service provides protection against the following potential risks:
Adverse Media
ParentCheck+ scans over 35,000 news sources in more than 50 languages using a comprehensive database to identify individuals linked to illicit activities, ensuring your school avoids problematic associations.
Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs)
With access to a database of over 1.4 million PEPs, including their family members and associates, ParentCheck+ helps you identify high-profile individuals who may pose financial or reputational risks.
Sanctions
We cross-reference key international sanction lists, including those from the EU, UN, and FBI, to ensure compliance and prevent your school from conducting business with prohibited individuals.
Money Laundering Links
ParentCheck+ flags individuals with links to money laundering, helping protect your school from legal repercussions and reputational harm.
Detailed Reporting for Informed Decisions
As part of the service, you’ll receive a detailed report highlighting any possible matches between your customers and adverse information. These insights enable you to make informed decisions and fulfil your statutory reporting obligations to the National Crime Agency (NCA).
How Does ParentCheck+ Work?
Using ParentCheck+ is simple and efficient:
- Submit a list of current or prospective customers.
- Our team processes the data and flags any potential matches to adverse information.
We do all the work for you—no need for an account, self-service platforms, or disclosing full customer details. Only a first and last name are required, though providing a date of birth and nationality helps reduce false positives.
ParentCheck+ employs a low match threshold, ensuring even tenuous links to adverse information are flagged for your review.
GDPR Compliance You Can Trust
ParentCheck+ operates within full compliance of UK GDPR regulations:
- Registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) as data controllers.
- No footprints left on subjects' credit files, as ParentCheck+ is not a credit-checking service.
- Lawful data processing under Article 6 of the GDPR (reasons c and f).
Our data sources also meet GDPR standards, so you can be confident in the ethical handling of sensitive information.
