The info is supplemental to what is considered to be a credit report, and thus does not have to appear on your pulled credit reports.

Similar to how your FICO score is not part of your credit report; it's a separate paid service that the credit unions pay for so they can charge their own customers.

Right, but this information is easily accessible from family & friends as the parent aluded? If so can you provide a link?

That data has been breached but it hasn't (and likely won't considering it was most likely a nation-state actor who was responsible) be released to the public. Even if it were it takes some sophistication to find the torrent, download it, import it into a database, and query that database. There's nothing easily accessible about it.
