Santa Rosa Residents Directory Terms of Use

These terms set the conditions for using Santa Rosa Residents Directory, a private reference that points to public records and historical collections in Santa Rosa and Sonoma County. Using the pages or linked resources means that you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, do not use the site.

1. What This Reference Is

Santa Rosa Residents Directory describes and links to public rolls, record indexes, and directory collections that may show who lives or has lived in Santa Rosa, California. It does not host government records, operate a public office, or have an affiliation with a court, library, or records custodian.


2. Permitted and Prohibited Uses

Use the pages only for lawful purposes. You may not use this reference or information found through it to:

  • Stalk, harass, intimidate, threaten, or harm another person
  • Locate a person protected by a restraining or protective order
  • Commit identity theft, fraud, or another offense
  • Make a decision regulated by the FCRA, including credit, employment, tenant, or insurance decisions
  • Scrape, copy, or republish the content at scale
  • Interfere with site operation, security, or availability

3. No Consumer Reporting Agency

This service is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. §1681 et seq. Information on these pages, and information returned by a linked search provider, is not a consumer report. It may not be used to decide eligibility for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or another purpose governed by the FCRA.


4. External Portals and Links

County, city, state, court, library, archive, and sponsored-search destinations set their own terms, privacy practices, fees, and availability. Santa Rosa Residents Directory does not control those outside services and is not responsible for their content or operation.


5. No Warranties

The reference is provided “as is” and “as available.” No warranty is made that a description, link, fee, coverage date, search portal, or result is accurate, complete, current, uninterrupted, or fit for a particular purpose. Confirm a material fact with the custodian.


6. Limits of Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, the operators are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or similar damages arising from use of these pages or a linked resource, including a decision made from a record located through them.


7. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold the operators harmless from claims, demands, losses, and reasonable attorneys' fees that arise from your misuse of the reference or your violation of these terms.


8. Copyright and Site Materials

The original writing, design, logo, and layout are protected by copyright. Linking to a page and quoting a short excerpt with attribution is welcome. Full-page republication or systematic copying is not permitted.


9. Changes to These Terms

The operators may revise these terms by posting a new version here. Continued use after the revision is posted indicates acceptance of the updated language.


10. Restricting Access

Access may be blocked or limited for a user who violates these terms, abuses the pages, threatens security, or interferes with their operation. The operators may take that step without advance notice.


11. California Law Applies

California law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law rules. The California Public Records Act, Government Code §§7920.000-7931.000, explains access to identifiable nonexempt state and local records, but it does not make this private reference a custodian or require an agency to create a new record. The California Consumer Privacy Act, Civil Code §1798.100 et seq., may provide rights to covered consumers regarding data held by a covered business; it does not erase government records outside the operators' control.


12. Severability

If a court finds one provision unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in effect to the extent permitted by law.


13. Questions About These Terms

Questions about these terms may be sent through the Contact page. Questions about a deed, court file, vital record, parcel, or permit must go to the custodian named on the relevant page.
