Alex Lintner

CEO, Technology, Software Solutions and Innovation, Experian

Search every verified Alex Lintner interview, podcast appearance, and on-the-record quote — each transcript cross-checked by AI and human review to confirm speaker identity. In a January 2026 interview on The Verge’s Decoder podcast, Alex Lintner, CEO of Technology, Software Solutions and Innovation at Experian, discussed the company’s role in the modern economy and defended its data practices. He stated that Experian is “not Palantir” and does not create reputation scores, instead operating in sectors such as financial services, healthcare, automotive, and digital marketing. Lintner argued that using consumer data benefits individuals by enabling access to credit, healthcare, and vehicle history information, and he emphasized that privacy laws allow consumers to opt out of data storage. Lintner also described his leadership approach, saying he relies on a group of chief technology officers and typically follows their consensus, though he may veto decisions that conflict with his top principles of privacy, consent, and security, even if that means higher costs. He noted that Experian is conscious of its responsibility to consumers, describing its business as effectively “B2B to C” because its services ultimately affect individuals.
