No Warranties

The site and partner results are provided “as is,” without warranties of accuracy, completeness, currency, availability, security, or error-free operation. Public records and custody status change, and nothing here is an official government statement.


Liability Limits

To the fullest extent Illinois law permits, the site and its operators are not liable for loss or damage arising from access, use, inability to use, or reliance on the site.


Indemnification

Users agree to defend and hold the site and its operators harmless from claims, losses, and reasonable legal fees arising from their use or violation of these terms.

These terms may change when a new version is posted. Access may be restricted or ended at any time, for any reason, without prior notice.


Illinois Law Controls

Illinois law governs these terms, and disputes must be brought in an appropriate Illinois court.

If one provision is invalid, the rest remain effective. The affected provision will be limited only as much as needed.
