Due diligence (DD) is systematically checking a subject’s background before a major decision to reduce risk. For individuals the two most common forms are DD on a company/counterparty and DD on a property — using only lawful public data.
Before signing, paying a deposit, hiring a contractor or franchising, check the other party’s registration status, capital, age, and any major litigation or government blacklist.
Check active faults, soil liquefaction, flood potential, nearby nuisance facilities, transaction prices and urban-renewal scope to avoid high-risk or hard-to-resell properties.
Proper DD uses only public or self-authorized data. You may not pull someone’s criminal record, run an unauthorized credit score, or aggregate court judgments into an identifiable individual profile — these violate Taiwan’s Personal Data Protection Act.

Proper DD uses only lawful public data; surveillance or pulling others’ personal data carries legal risk.
