Terms of Use

These terms apply whenever you use North Port Residents Directory. By continuing to use the site, you agree to these terms. If you disagree with them, do not use the service.

1. Nature of the Website

North Port Residents Directory is a privately run reference. It describes and links to public rolls, record indexes, and directory collections related to North Port, Florida. The site does not host government records and is not affiliated with North Port, Sarasota County, Florida, any court, or any records custodian.


2. Acceptable Use Rules

You must use the service and any information reached through it only for lawful purposes. You may not use either 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. No Consumer Reports

North Port Residents Directory is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. ยง 1681 et seq. Neither site content nor information returned by a linked search tool is a consumer report. It cannot be used to decide eligibility for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or another purpose covered by the FCRA.


4. Third-Party Resources

Government portals, sponsored search tools, and other third-party services operate under their own terms and privacy policies. We do not control or accept responsibility for their content, uptime, charges, or data handling.


5. Disclaimer of Warranties

The service is offered "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind. We do not promise that site content will be accurate, complete, or current. We also make no warranty that a linked portal will remain available or produce correct results.


6. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, the site's operators are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages caused by use of North Port Residents Directory or a linked resource. This includes harm arising from decisions based on records found through either.


7. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold the site's operators harmless from claims or demands, including reasonable attorneys' fees, that arise from your misuse of the service or your breach of these terms.


8. Intellectual Property

Copyright protects the original text, design, logo, and layout. You may link to a page or quote a short excerpt with attribution. Republishing complete pages or systematically copying the site's content is prohibited.


9. Revisions to These Terms

We may revise these terms by publishing an updated version here. Your continued use after publication signifies acceptance of the changes.


10. Restricting Access

We may restrict or block access, without prior notice, when a user violates these terms or abuses the service.


11. Governing Law

Florida law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Public access to many Florida agency records arises under Florida Constitution article I, section 24 and Florida Public Records Law, chapter 119, subject to statutory exemptions. Those authorities govern public offices and do not make North Port Residents Directory a government custodian.


12. Severability

If a court finds one part of these terms unenforceable, every remaining provision continues in force.
