IKEA, Projekt Pre-qualification

I was looking at the  IKEA Projekt card and saw they have 'See if you pre-qualify now' button.

This leads to the disclaimer; 'See if you prequalify without any impact to your credit score!'

 

I filled out the information which includes full social security number. There is even the the Fair Credit reporting act saying they may obtain information from Experian. I still took this to be a SP

 

Not long after, Credit Check Total alerted me that 'Activity using your personal information was detected'.

 

On CCT I received this alert:

Date

Company

Activity

About this Alert
Alliance data issues private label credit cards for retail locations across the US and Canada. Brands include: J Crew, Pottery Barn, Ann Taylor, Victoria's Secret, and others
 
It does not read like a HP (example provided): CHASE CARD obtained a copy of your EXPERIAN Credit Report.
 
So, does this not show as a HP?
