3. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

This site is not a consumer reporting agency as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (15 U.S.C. ยง 1681 et seq.). Nothing here, and nothing any linked search tool returns, is a consumer report, and none of it may be used to judge eligibility for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or any other FCRA-covered purpose.

Separate terms and policies govern government portals, sponsored search tools, and other outside services. Their content, prices, availability, and data practices are beyond our control.

The service is offered "as is" and "as available" without warranties. No promise is made that its content is complete, accurate, or current, or that a linked portal will remain available or return a correct match.

To the maximum extent the law allows, we are not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising from use of this site or any linked resource, including decisions made from records found through it.


7. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the operators of this site from any claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising from your misuse of the site or violation of these terms.


8. Intellectual Property

The original text, design, logo, and layout of this site are protected by copyright. Linking to any page and quoting brief excerpts with attribution is welcome; republishing full pages or systematically copying content is not.


9. Revisions

A revised version may be posted here. Continuing to use the service after publication means that you accept it.


10. Cutting Off Access

We may block or restrict any user who violates these terms or abuses the site, at our discretion and without notice.


11. Illinois Law

Illinois law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Public-record access described by the service is subject to the Illinois Freedom of Information Act, 5 ILCS 140, as well as record-specific exemptions and access statutes.
