CIFAS markers

I thought that my credit file was only about me and does not include any detail excepting possibly about Ms Descrambled; joint account holder.
Responses on here often state that individuals have credit files and not addresses.
So why do my credit report(s) say that there is no CIFAS markers at my addresses.
I am confused but with no markers.

    English please.

    Why does my credit file state that there is no CIFAS markers at my address?
    It should surely say that I have no CIFAS markers against my name.

    That’s just the terminology but if someone takes out CIFAS protective registration it will protect their name and address so it’s just the way it’s worded
