I used to be a lawyer. You had to attest your use case. It's not exactly the words on the tin, but "legal dispute" or "debt collection" were what I attested to.

You could get a lot of historical data on a person. ICE will have its own category that amounts to "we are ICE." Remember that federal law trumps state law where they conflict because of the supremacy clause of the Constitution. And I would be surprised if the restrictions on using these data don't have carveouts for "law enforcement purposes." Even if the carveouts are not in the legislation, there is a non-zero chance that the judges will invent one of whole cloth. Mine own Lexis report was, of course, comically wrong. So I took it all with a grain of salt.
