3. Consumer Reporting Status
We are not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1681 et seq. Nothing on the site or returned by a linked tool is a consumer report, and it may not be used to decide eligibility for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or any other FCRA-covered purpose.
4. Outside Services
Government portals, libraries, archives, and sponsored tools are operated by others and have their own terms and policies. We do not control their content, availability, data practices, fees, or results.
5. No Warranty
The site is provided as is and as available. We make no guarantee that any content is complete, accurate, current, or available, and no guarantee that an external service will work or return a correct result.

To the fullest extent allowed by law, the site operators are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or other damages arising from use of the site or an outside resource.

The site’s original text, design, logo, and layout are protected by copyright. Linking to a page and quoting a brief attributed excerpt is permitted; systematic copying or republication of full pages is not.
9. Term Revisions
We may change these terms by publishing an updated version. Continued use following a posted change means you accept the updated terms.
10. Access Restrictions
We may block or limit access without notice when a user violates these terms, abuses a search service, or threatens site security.
11. Michigan Law
Michigan law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Public-record requests to government custodians are governed by Michigan Freedom of Information Act, MCL 15.231 et seq.; court and library access can be subject to separate rules.

If one provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain effective.
