3. No Consumer Reporting Agency Status
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. section 1681 et seq., this site is not a consumer reporting agency. Neither the material here nor a result from a linked search tool is a consumer report, and neither may be used to decide eligibility for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or another purpose covered by the FCRA.
4. External Websites and Services
Government portals and third-party services, including sponsored search tools, operate under their own terms and privacy policies. We do not control or accept responsibility for their content, availability, prices, or data handling.
5. No Warranty
The site is supplied "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind. We do not promise that material is accurate, complete, or current, or that an outside portal will function or produce a correct result.
6. Liability Limits
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the operators are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising from this site or a linked resource, including a decision based on a record found through it.

The site's original writing, design, logo, and layout are protected by copyright. You may link to a page and quote a short, attributed excerpt; publishing full pages or copying the material systematically is not permitted.
9. Revisions to These Terms

10. Restricting Access
At our discretion, and without advance notice, we may block or limit access for a user who violates these terms or abuses the site.
11. California Law and Records Routes
California law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. The California Public Records Act, Government Code sections 7920.000 et seq., governs requests made to a public custodian, not a request to this private site. Where applicable and subject to exceptions, California's consumer-privacy rules are the California Consumer Privacy Act and California Privacy Rights Act, Civil Code sections 1798.100-1798.199.100; the Attorney General's guidance describes those rights.
12. Severability
If a provision of these terms cannot be enforced, the remaining provisions continue in effect.
