Might be worth to tell the full story, as well:

- OpenSCHUFA was initiated by Open Knowledge Foundation Deutschland and Algorithmwatch, two independent and established NGOs.

- Algorithmwatch is supported by a foundation/trust called "Bertelsmann Stiftung".

- There is also a company called "Bertelsmann", which owns Arvato Infoscore, a competitor to SCHUFA.

- The Bertelsmann Stiftung (which is supporting Algorithmwatch which is co-initiator of OpenSCHUFA) owns a majority of shares of the company (that owns Arvator Infoscore, a competitor to SCHUFA), and some people say the foundation and company are tightly tied together.

- And last but not least Schufa now places in the press, that this is a big conflict of interest.

As stated before, we are not only asking for SCHUFA but also arvato data, see blogpost https://okfn.de/blog/2018/02/openschufa-english/#update
