Terms of Use

These terms apply whenever you use Carpentersville Residents Directory. Do not continue if you do not agree to them.

1. Nature of This Website

Carpentersville Residents Directory is a privately run reference to public rolls, record indexes, and historical collections concerning Carpentersville, Illinois. It neither hosts government records nor represents any agency, court, library, or custodian.


2. Permitted Use

All use must be lawful. Neither the service nor information reached through it may be used to:

  • Stalk, harass, intimidate, threaten, or harm any person
  • Locate someone protected by a restraining or protective order
  • Commit identity theft or fraud
  • Make FCRA-regulated decisions (credit, employment, tenant, insurance)
  • Scrape, copy, or republish the site's content at scale
  • Interfere with the site's operation or security

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.


4. Outside Services

Government portals, sponsored tools, and other third parties set their own terms. Their content, uptime, prices, and treatment of data are outside our responsibility.


5. Warranty Disclaimer

The service is offered "as is" and "as available" without any warranty. Content may be incomplete, outdated, or wrong, and an outside portal may fail or produce an inaccurate result.


6. Limits on Our Liability

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.

9. Revisions

A revised version may be posted here from time to time. Continued use after publication signals acceptance of the revised terms.


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. Governing Law

Illinois law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Access to covered state and local public records is addressed by the Illinois Freedom of Information Act, 5 ILCS 140/1 et seq.; that law does not turn this private website into a records custodian.


12. Severability

If one provision cannot be enforced, all remaining provisions continue to apply.
