3. No Consumer Reports

This service is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. §§ 1681–1681x. Neither the material here nor a result from a linked tool is a consumer report. It may not be used to assess eligibility for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or another FCRA-regulated purpose.

The service’s original text, design, logo, and layout are protected by copyright. Linking to a page and quoting a brief passage with attribution is permitted; republication of full pages or systematic copying is not.


9. Revisions to These Terms

We may post an updated version of these terms here. Continued use after that posting accepts the revision.


10. Restricting Access

We may block or limit access, without notice and at our discretion, for a violation of these terms or abusive use of the service.

Public-record access discussed in the service is governed separately by the New Jersey Open Public Records Act, P.L. 2001, c. 404, codified at N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1 et seq., and by the statutes and rules controlling each specific record type.
