Largest Provider of Household Data To Provide Free Access To Data on U.S. Population for Research and Technology Solutions Related to COVID-19

PRINCETON, N.J., March 24, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ALC, a leader in the data, identity products and services industry, announced they are making the ALC’s Data Essential files – a comprehensive demographic view of the US – available at no cost to those working to address the COVID-19 crisis. Access to ALC’s data will help providers of essential services better reach those who need them most.

“This is an unprecedented moment where data can be a force for good,” said ALC CEO Rick Erwin. “Organizations working to help others during this crisis should not be worried about costs.”

ALC’s Data Essentials file covers 100% of U.S. households, including all individuals within those households — each with persistent identity keys and including 300 independent variables. This data will allow any company working on a COVID-19 solution that depends on better understanding of attributes such as individual location, segments, digital identifiers and household information to better model and understand the U.S. population. Potential use cases include:

• Health Care Responders looking to model effective resource deployment plans
• Researchers looking to profile those affected by the virus, establishing treatment segments and future defenses
• Public officials looking to target PSAs and model economic impacts
• Providers of essential services making offers available to local communities
