Addressfinder staff are able to access Consumer Information via the Addressfinder portal (accessible for a period of 48 hours) and via the Logz.io application (accessible for a period of 14 days).

Addressfinder applies role based access in which only Addressfinder employees who require access to systems and data (Customer or Consumer or both) for the purposes of completing functions of their job are provided with this access.
