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. § 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.

Government websites, sponsored search tools, and other third parties apply their own policies and terms. Their content, uptime, prices, and treatment of submitted data remain outside our control.

The service is offered "as is" and "as available" without warranties. We do not promise that its content is complete, accurate, or current, or that a linked portal will remain available or return a correct match.

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.
