Run a Personal Background Check on Yourself — and Control Who Sees It

If you’re preparing for a job interview, volunteering opportunity, or any situation where a background check is required, it’s smart to know what may appear on your record ahead of time. With a national criminal background check from BackgroundChecks.com, you can review your own information first—then choose if, when, and how to share it.

BackgroundChecks.com gives individuals an easy and affordable way to run a personal background check using the same professional databases trusted by employers nationwide. You get transparency, speed, and—most importantly—control over your information.

What Is a National Criminal Background Check?

A national criminal background check searches millions of records across multiple jurisdictions to identify potential criminal history tied to an individual. These searches may surface felony and misdemeanor records reported by courts and law enforcement agencies throughout the United States.

National searches are commonly used as an initial screening step to identify records that may require closer, county-level review.

Why Run a Background Check on Yourself?

Running a background check on yourself allows you to:

  • See what employers or organizations may see

  • Identify errors, outdated records, or mistaken identity issues

  • Prepare explanations for records that may appear

  • Share your report proactively and confidently

Many individuals are surprised to find records linked to similar names or outdated court data. Reviewing your background in advance helps you avoid delays and surprises during the hiring process.
